New York Giants QB Daniel Jones explains how he’s learned the playbook so quickly

When the New York Giants drafted quarterback Daniel Jones with the No. 6 pick in the NFL draft, they knew he may not play right away. It seems the plan will be to sit Jones initially so he could learn the position behind longtime Big Blue quarterback Eli Manning. That way, Jones can be as prepared as possible for when he eventually gets the nod to start.

Through OTAs and minicamp, Jones impressed coaches and players. He still has to put in a good amount of work. However, the organization is confident they made the right pick when they selected him back in April.
