Who Should I Start? Daniel Jones or Jacob Eason

Monday, April 15, 2:32 PM

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (knee), who is returning from a torn ACL that he suffered in 2023, told reporters on Monday that the plan is for him to be fully cleared for training camp this summer. Jones has not had any setbacks since undergoing surgery on Nov. 22 to fix his right ACL tear. The 26-year-old also said the neck injury he dealt with last year before hurting his knee is in the rearview mirror. Despite the fact that the Giants are considering drafting another QB at the end of this month, they continue to say that Jones will be the unquestioned starter under center when he returns from his knee injury. Although Jones had a career year in 2022, plenty of questions remain as to whether he can repeat that performance, especially now that running back Saquon Barkley is no longer in town. Consider him a low-upside QB2 with more question marks coming off a serious knee injury.

Free agent quarterback Jacob Eason is signing with the New York Giants on Tuesday. The Giants are without Daniel Jones (knee) for the remainder of the season due to a torn ACL, and Tyrod Taylor (ribs) was recently placed on Injured Reserve and could be out for the season, too. Tommy Devito has played in each of their last two games in relief of Jones and Taylor, completing just 17 passes for 174 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Eason spent time with the Colts, Seahawks, Panthers, and 49ers during his first three years in the NFL. Although he's thrown just ten passes in the regular season, he could make his way to the starting quarterback role given the shaky situation the G-Men are facing.
