ESPN’s Adam Schefter\u00a0said\u00a0on Monday that the\u00a0New York Giants\u00a0weren’t, in fact, looking at a potential replacement for quarterback Daniel Jones during the 2024 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, both ESPN’s Jordan Raanan and Mike Reiss had different insight into that\u00a0report.<\/p>\n

Raanan and Reiss\u00a0wrote\u00a0that the G-Men wanted to trade up with the New England Patriots to acquire the No. 3 overall pick and selected North Carolina’s Drake Maye. The Patriots ended up holding onto the pick and chose Maye as their presumed franchise signal-caller.
\nPat Leonard of the New York Daily News discussed the situation on Wednesday morning and agreed with Raanan’s and Reiss’ reports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After not selecting a quarterback during the draft, New York has Drew Lock lined up as Jones’ backup and last season’s cult hero Tommy DeVito\u00a0slated as the\u00a0third stringer.<\/p>\n

Lock agreed to a\u00a0one-year, $5M contract\u00a0with the Giants in March.<\/p>\n

Jones is two years removed from a career-best 2022 campaign, during which he produced 22 total touchdowns (seven rushing) against just five interceptions and posted a career-high 92.5 passer rating. He signed a massive four-year, $160M contract extension in March 2023 but struggled mightily last season.<\/p>\n

Danny Dimes\u00a0missed Weeks 6, 7 and 8 due to a neck injury and then suffered a season-ending torn ACL in his return to action in Week 9. Jones finished his fifth season with a career-high 67.5 completion percentage but just 909 passing yards, two touchdowns, six interceptions and a career-worst 70.5 passer rating.<\/p>\n

Big Blue is expecting the 2019 first-round pick to be fully ready by training camp.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
