Back in April, the New York Giants selected quarterback Daniel Jones with the No. 6 pick in the NFL Draft. At the time, the team expected him to come in, serve as a backup to Eli Manning and learn the system. Basically, they were going to give him enough time to prepare for when his name was called.
Then, Week 3 of this season rolled around. That’s when the Giants made the switch from Manning to Jones. At that time, the team expected him to not be a perfect quarterback, nor close to it.
