NFL Rumors: Daniel Jones, Giants Relationship Was 'A Bit Awkward' Before Benching

The New York Giants made the move to bench Daniel Jones coming out of its Week 11 bye in favor of Tommy DeVito, a move that likely foreshadows the end of the Jones' era with the organization.

Even before that decision, however, the relationship between the sides reportedly had grown "a bit awkward," multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports, "especially with the organization publicly exploring other quarterback options, including during Hard Knocks this past offseason."

"It was like flirting with someone new while your date is still at the table," a source told Schultz.
