'Welcome to the NFL, Jake,' Eagles tell Fromm

PHILADELPHIA — It was the chance of a lifetime, and Jake Fromm’s emotions matched the moment.

"I was juiced up," Fromm said of his mindset heading into Sunday’s game against the Eagles — the first start of the recently signed Giants quarterback’s career. "I was excited. I was amped up and ready to go."

Unfortunately for Fromm, the performance didn’t match the expectation.

A week after seeing his first game action in the fourth quarter of the Giants’ 21-6 loss to the Cowboys, Fromm’s debut as a starter didn’t end well. In fact, he didn’t even make it to the fourth quarter.
