Part of being the quarterback of an NFL team is answering for mistakes, not all of them your own. Daniel Jones already seems to have mastered the "it's not you, it's me" philosophy of deflecting criticisms of his teammates.
Fifth-round draft pick Darius Slayton dropped several passes in the first half of the first practice on Friday, and Jones was asked about them on Saturday.
"I think he did a lot of good things on the field," Jones said. "He definitely made some plays. You can see his speed on the field, you can feel that. I thought for everyone it was a good first day. We were all probably a little up and down, but that's the challenge of the second day to try to be more consistent."
