As the New York Giants embark on the offseason, they confront significant decisions, particularly regarding the quarterback position. The 2023 season unfolded as a letdown for both the team and their quarterback, Daniel Jones. 

Despite securing a substantial four-year, $160 million contract extension the previous offseason, Jones grappled with poor performances and injuries that led to an early end to his season. As the quarterback dilemma looms large for the Giants, Jones’ future with the Giants is in jeopardy.

Will the Giants incorporate a veteran free-agent quarterback into the roster? 

As the team evaluates how to address the quarterback situation, rumors are circulating in the league, according to ESPN’s Matt Miller, indicating that the Giants might opt for adding a veteran free-agent quarterback to the roster rather than making an early investment in the position through the 2024 NFL Draft. According to ESPN’s Matt Miller, rumors circulating at the Senior Bowl suggest that the New York Giants are leaning toward acquiring a veteran free-agent quarterback to compete with Daniel Jones rather than opting for an early draft pick.

Given the Giants’ sixth position in the draft order, they might be out of range for the top quarterback prospects in the class. General manager Joe Schoen, facing a significant financial commitment to Jones, appears determined to bring in competition for the starting position. Despite Jones’s substantial salary for 2024, the team is seeking a quarterback with more upside, especially after Jones’s struggles in the six starts during the 2023 season.

Which veteran QB is likely to join the Giants?

Recent NFL rumors suggest that the New York Giants are considering adding a veteran quarterback to compete with Daniel Jones instead of targeting a rookie in the draft. ESPN’s Matt Miller indicates that the Chicago Bears may trade starting quarterback Justin Fields and draft Caleb Williams in the 2024 NFL Draft. This raises speculation about the Giants being a potential destination for Fields.

With two second-round picks in the upcoming draft, the Giants could explore acquiring Fields. However, challenges arise due to Fields entering the final season of his rookie contract, with a $6 million cap hit in 2024 and an estimated $23.3 million for the fifth-year option in 2025. The financial commitment to Jones poses hurdles for accommodating Fields’s contract, making the acquisition less likely for the Giants. Despite the intriguing prospect of Fields under head coach Brian Daboll, financial considerations may limit the feasibility of this move for the Giants in the upcoming offseason.
