No one was surprised in 2022 when the New York Giants declined quarterback Daniel Jones’ fifth-year option for 2023. After four NFL seasons, Jones had already played for two head coaches and would be playing for his third head coach in 2022.
The Giants finally got it right when they hired Brian Daboll as head coach. It gave Jones stability, and Daboll schemed an offense around what his quarterback did best. Jones rewarded the Giants with his best NFL season, leading New York back to the playoffs and a trip to the NFC divisional round.
