Eli Manning was apparently silent after the New York Giants added his long-term successor in the first round of the 2019 NFL draft.
Giants head coach Pat Shurmur told reporters Saturday that Manning "had no response" to Jones' arrival.
Prior to the draft, New York had largely avoided positioning a young quarterback as the heir apparent. Nobody seriously expected 2017 third-rounder Davis Webb or 2018 fourth-rounder Kyle Lauletta to seriously challenge Manning for the starting job.
Jones, on the other hand, will clearly receive the keys to the offense sooner or later.
