Pro Football Hall of Famer Brett Favre thinks Eli Manning would have been content to see Daniel Jones struggle in his first start with the New York Giants.
During his weekly show on Sirius XM NFL Radio (h/t NJ.com's Ryan Dunleavy), Favre explained his theory about Manning watching Jones from the sideline on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
"You and I and anyone else can only speculate what Eli was thinking, but you have to think that deep down inside a part of him, not wanted to see Daniel Jones fail but not play at the level he did," Favre said.
