This past year, Daniel Jones raised the eyebrows of those who criticized the New York Giants for drafting him at No. 6 overall. The former Duke Blue Devil threw for 3,027 yards and 24 touchdowns and could’ve broken the record for single-season touchdown passes by a rookie (27) had he not sat two games late in the year.
There was a glaring issue though: his ball security. The young quarterback not only threw 12 picks but additionally coughed up the ball a total of 18 times (11 lost).
The aforementioned statistics make the carelessness with the ball one of his most significant on-field setbacks, and that was surely a thought in Jones’ mind while he spent time with college coach David Cutcliffe in January.
