But, as it turns out, the beginning of the end may have arrived far sooner than Jones's benching. Multiple players told ESPN's Jordan Raanan that the quarterback's relationship with coach Brian Daboll "appeared different" during the 2024 season, with one player even calling the dynamic between the player and coach "weird."

The best result is now probably for the team to lose as many games as possible, get a high draft pick and select the QB of the future with it. However, despite promises from ownership, head coach Brian Daboll may not survive a winless (or near-winless) stretch run after starting the campaign 2-8.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll made a bold decision this week, benching quarterback Daniel Jones and elevating Tommy DeVito from QB3 to QB1. The reasoning, Daboll said, is that DeVito gives the Giants their best chance to win.
