Daniel Jones feeling the heat

The Seattle Seahawks and New York Giants squared off on Monday Night Football. What particularly agitated Giants fans was the pocket on the pick-six pass by Daniel Jones. According to Sports writer Doug Rush, Seahawks LB Uchenna Nwosu was closing in on Giants guard Joshua Ezeudu, and to his credit, Ezeudu held him off long enough for Jones to make the throw.

However, Brian Daboll’s anger reached a boiling point after the play because QB Jones made the wrong read. He should have thrown the ball to Giants TE Darren Waller in the back of the end zone, not to WR Parris Campbell, who was closely covered by Seahawks CB Devon Witherspoon. Witherspoon intercepted the pass and returned it for six points. Following a conversation with Jones on the sideline, Daboll vented his frustration by flipping a tablet to the ground.

Consequently, fans erupted, echoing Coach Brian Daboll’s frustration and commenting, “Good lol – dude is stealing $40M from the team.” During the off-season, the Giants gave Daniel Jones a big contract—$40 million for 4 years. This makes him the seventh-highest-paid quarterback in the NFL, with $82 million guaranteed, ranking eighth overall.
