After weeks and weeks of stressing the importance of ball security to Daniel Jones without much to show for it, it seems the second-year quarterback finally got the message from his coaches on Sunday.
Although he did fumble twice and have a momentary interception off a tipped pass overturned by replay review, Jones played his first game this season – and just the second of his career – without a turnover. It gave the Giants a win over Washington, but more importantly it gave everyone in the organization a reason to sigh with relief.
"I’m really encouraged by the way he played this past Sunday," quarterbacks coach Jerry Schuplinski said on Tuesday.
