The New York Giants got absolutely smoked by the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in Saquon Barkley's first game back at MetLife Stadium. While the Eagles haven't exactly been dominant in 2024 and were slow to get going against New York they eventually did, in fact, get going. The Giants were steamrolled from the second quarter on and an early fourth quarter touchdown gave Philly a comfortable 28-3 lead.
That's when the Giants decided to make a change. Starting quarterback Daniel Jones was yanked for backup Drew Lock. It's not clear if it's a true benching or head coach Brian Daboll waving the white flag facing an insurmountable deficit.
