Listen, I'm still happy we gave him that contract because I felt he played really well for us in '22. Last year he got hurt and, let's be honest, when he was playing, we weren't blocking anybody. So let's give him a chance with a better offensive line and some weapons around him and see what he can do.
Instead, the Giants stuck with Jones and drafted LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers with the sixth overall pick to give him a weapon on offense.
I was nervous about giving up too much to go get a quarterback. I was prepared to let [general manager Joe Schoen and coach Brian Daboll] do that if that is what they wanted to do. We made a decision to stay with Daniel and add a weapon for him, and I think that is going to work out for us.
