The biggest falsity pedaled over and over about the Giants is that Daniel Jones just needs to play like he did in 2022 to quiet his critics.
Training camp and a small taste of preseason action suggest that Daboll wants more from Jones than he is willing to say: More big plays, more deep throws, more points scored.New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones looks to throw during training camp at the Quest Diagnostics center, Friday, Sept. 6, 2024, in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
“We came in pretty explosive. We got down the field a good bit,” said Darius Slayton, Jones’ favorite target since their shared rookie year. “We started there and then we went back. It’s in him. He’s shown that he’s capable. This year, hopefully, we’ll be able to make more plays down the field and bring that back to life.”Daniel Jones hands off to New York Giants running back Eric Gray during training camp at the Quest Diagnostics center, Friday, Sept. 6, 2024.
The message drilled into Jones’ head in the years behind the scenes after his 23-turnover rookie season was, “Take what the defense gives you.” Daboll could be willing to live with more aggressive mistakes as a trade-off for the explosives that get the Giants out of the bottom-five in chunk gains and points scored over the last two seasons.
“He pressures often. Sometimes the entire game,” Daboll said. “It’s a completely different defensive scheme and structure than we saw two years ago. Couldn’t be any more different.”
