Eli Manning's verdict on Daniel Jones winning Super Bowl speaks volumes

New York Giants legend Eli Manning believes their current quarterback Daniel Jones can deliver the team's fifth Super Bowl championship.

Last season, Jones, 25, led the Giants to the playoffs for the first time since 2016. Once there, New York won their Wild Card game against the Minnesota Vikings 31-24 and advanced to the Divisional round before being well-beaten by eventual Super Bowl runners-up, the Philadelphia Eagles, 38-7.

After a historic postseason performance, particularly versus the Vikings, during the off-season, Jones signed a four-year, $160 million contract extension. Manning is in favour of that decision and insists that the experience of playing and winning in the playoffs will be invaluable to the team and, in particular, Jones.
