Giants Benched QB Daniel Jones in Loss

In a dismal performance against the Philadelphia Eagles, the New York Giants fell 28-3, leading to the benching of quarterback Daniel Jones in the fourth quarter. Jones completed 14 of 21 passes for just 99 yards and took seven sacks, as the Giants' offense struggled without starting left tackle Andrew Thomas. Former Giants running back Saquon Barkley excelled against his old team, rushing for 176 yards and one touchdown. The Giants' offensive line faltered significantly, allowing multiple pressures and contributing to the team's lack of scoring, with only a field goal to show for their efforts. With the Giants now 2-5 on the season, questions loom over Jones' future as the starting quarterback. Coach Brian Daboll's decision to replace him with Drew Lock reflects the team's urgent need for improvement amidst their ongoing struggles.
