A make-or-break year is upon Daniel Jones. The Giants quarterback must prove he’s the franchise’s future or he’ll be on his way out of East Rutherford. Simple as that.
Jones faces this daunting task with a new head coach in Brian Daboll and a hopefully improved offensive line that added right guard Mark Glowinski, center Jon Feliciano, and rookie right tackle Evan Neal in the offseason.
But even with the new support, Jones’ crucial 2022 won’t be kind to him, according to an NFL offensive coach.
“I think he is a classic case of a guy who didn’t have enough reps coming out and then realizing pretty quickly, ‘Guess what, it is hard to develop quarterback play with a truncated offseason unless you are doing that on your own,'” the anonymous coach told The Athletic, which ranked Jones the 30th-best quarterback in the NFL.
