The answer to the question “when will Daniel Jones start games for the New York Giants?” really can’t be answered.
That depends on any number of variables, most importantly how the season unfolds for the Giants.
As much as the Giants have shown their willingness to prepare for the future by drafting Jones No. 6 overall, given the loyalty ownership and GM Dave Gettleman have shown to Manning it seems unlikely they will be in a hurry to shove Manning aside.
If Manning is playing well, or well enough, and the Giants continue to have a realistic chance to reach the playoffs, it’s hard to envision the Giants pulling a Kurt Warner on Manning.
