Daniel Jones is entering his fourth year in the NFL. For the New York Giants quarterback, it’s the last chance to convince doubters of his worth. To do that, he’d actually need all the sessions with the starters in training camp – but now he’ll have to share them with Tyrod Taylor.

Munich – He is one of the most controversial personalities in the NFL: Daniel Jones, quarterback of the New York Giants.

While some attest him a quality of a backup, the others still believe in his breakthrough. This is also the case with the New York Giants, who also want to go into the 2022 season with him as the starter.

However, the new head coach Brian Daboll probably does not have unlimited confidence in him. Because in the coming days, the actual backup, Tyrod Taylor, will also practice with the first offense.

Daboll: “We’re evaluating them every day “

“We have full confidence in Daniel Jones and Tyrod Taylor and everyone knows their role. We sit together every day and evaluate them and the situation,” Daboll explained. “Taylor will also get some runs with the first offense. “

A sentence that makes you sit up and take notice. That the starting quarterback doesn’t practice with the first team is really only in exceptional circumstances – or if the starter isn’t convincing.

However, the rookie head coach wanted to nip any doubts about Jones’ personnel in the bud right away. “Absolutely not, no. We’re not preparing anybody to replace anybody else,” said the 47-year-old, who also provided the reasons right away: “You have to prepare like you’re the starter. I learned that from a very good coach. In the fourth play of the game, someone can get injured, then you have to be in demand,” Daboll explained.

Still, this move certainly opens up room for speculation.
