For Giants backup quarterback Davis Webb, starter Daniel Jones is the “smartest playmaker” he’s ever played with. In light of his previous teammates, an exciting statement.

Munich – Interesting statements from Davis Webb. The quarterback is currently employed as a backup playmaker by the New York Giants. Not the first time that the signal caller is under contract in the Big Apple.

Webb once wore the team’s jersey in the days of Eli Manning. Meanwhile, the franchise’s starting quarterback goes by the name of Daniel Jones and, according to his replacement, surpasses two-time Super Bowl champion Manning in so many ways.

“Jones is the hardest-working quarterback I know,” Webb told a news conference after a Giants team activity. “He’s probably the smartest quarterback I’ve ever seen. “

Giants quarterback Jones smarter than Mahomes and Manning?

Great words from a backup who has been on the squad with many a star quarterback in his career. In college, Webb played with Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes, later alongside Manning, the past few years with Josh Allen with the Bills.

Daniel Jones can only dream of the success of the signal callers just mentioned so far. So what makes his backup so sure that the Giants’ starter is on par with all the much more successful playmakers – and “probably the smartest” Webb has ever seen?

“He has really good questions in meetings, takes really good notes, he’s always trying to get better, in the weight room, on the practice field, in the meeting room, he’s just all in, and it’s fun to have a teammate like that.”

He continued, “He cares so much and gets the best out of his teammates. He’s a hell of a football player. I think he’s going to have his best year. “

Jones has failed to impress so far

Jones hasn’t been able to shine too much with the Giants so far. He certainly had to deal with injuries and poor pass protection, but 29 interceptions and 36 fumbles are not necessarily evidence of ball security.

Under new head coach Brian Daboll, however, much could change in the Big Apple next season, including Jones. “Daniel is a competitive, competitive guy. He’s super smart. Probably the smartest quarterback I know. He’s got high goals, and I think that’s going to help him achieve them. “
