Pat Shurmur: Giants' Eli Manning, Daniel Jones Calm but 'Fiery Under the Covers'

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur had an odd analogy to praise rookie quarterback Daniel Jones.

Speaking to reporters Tuesday, Shurmur said the No. 6 overall pick shares some personality traits with Eli Manning, per SNY's Ralph Vacchiano: "They're very calm in their approach, but they're very fiery under the covers. ... They're both very fiery about making sure things are done properly."
