Daniel Jones’ Contract and Future: Should the Giants Stick or Move On?
Daniel Jones' future with the New York Giants remains a hot topic as the team evaluates its long-term quarterback strategy.
After signing a four-year, $160 million contract in 2023, Jones has struggled with injuries and inconsistent play, raising questions about whether the Giants should stay committed or move on.
While his mobility and flashes of solid play make him a capable starter, his inability to consistently elevate the offense has led to concerns.
The team's offensive struggles, including a weak offensive line and lack of elite playmakers, have certainly played a role in his performance, but franchise quarterbacks are expected to overcome adversity.
If the Giants believe Jones can rebound and justify his hefty contract, they may give him another season with improved support.
However, with a potential top draft pick in 2024 and a strong quarterback class, they could opt to draft a successor and cut ties with Jones after 2024 when his dead cap hit decreases.
Financially, moving on too soon could be costly, but sticking with Jones without improvement could set the franchise back further.
With the right support, improved consistency, and leadership, Jones could guide the Giants back to being legitimate Super Bowl contenders.
