The Dallas Cowboys have officially stated they will not pursue former New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones. Cowboys Executive Vice President Stephen Jones confirmed the team's decision, following rumors stemming from a brief error on the online roster. Daniel Jones, released by the Giants after a season of poor performance, now seeks new opportunities in the free agency market. Despite the Cowboys' struggles with backup quarterbacks Cooper Rush and Trey Lance, they remain committed to their current lineup.
The New York Giants have released quarterback Daniel Jones just over a year after he signed a four-year contract. The decision follows a string of poor performances and injuries that plagued Jones's stint with the team. Amid a disappointing 2-8 season record and his demotion to fourth-string, Jones requested to be released and is now seeking new opportunities in the league. The Giants' shift toward rebuilding and potentially targeting a new quarterback in the upcoming NFL draft marks the end of Jones's challenging tenure with the team.
The New York Giants have decided to bench Daniel Jones, giving Tommy DeVito the opportunity to start as quarterback against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This shift comes after a tough season for the Giants, standing at a 2-8 record and having a five-game losing streak. Coach Brian Daboll hopes DeVito will bring a needed change to the team dynamics. Financial considerations linked to Jones' contract also influenced this decision, as the team aims to avoid triggering a substantial injury guarantee. The decision opens discussions about Jones' future and strategic moves for the Giants in upcoming games and drafts.
