Jones played 6 years for the Giants, not 7.

He had 5 mediocre seasons, and 1 season in which he got comeback player of the year in 2022.

The Giants were bad for 2 seasons before Jones got there when Eli Manning was their quarterback (2018 and 2019), and they were bad after he left when rookie Jaxson Dart was their quarterback (2025.) Their combined record in the 3 seasons combined before and after Daniel Jones was 12-37.


Jones had 1 good season and 5 mediocre seasons playing for bad Giants teams ...... he's not an elite quarterback, but he very well may be a Jim Plunkett-type of player who needs a good team around him in order to rise above the level mediocrity, as Plunkett did when he wound up with the Raiders after lingering for 7 seasons with bad Patriots and 49ers teams.
