On Friday morning, the New York Giants announced they have released quarterback Daniel Jones.
Jones requested his release Friday morning from Giants president John Mara, who agreed it was in the best interest of Jones and the team, the statement said.
Apparently, this news came after the Giants decided to demote Jones to fourth-string quarterback and make Tommy DeVito the starter, likely due to injury guarantees on Jones’ expensive contract. be.
Jones will probably clear waivers Because of that contract. But where will he end up? Let’s take a look at the teams that could potentially acquire him.

A lot of that has to do with the quarterback revolving door between Aidan O’Connell and Gardner Minshew.
The Raiders traded Davante Adams to the New York Jets, effectively waving the white flag on this season. But what’s the best thing about the lost season? It gives you a chance to try something new.
Adding Jones to the dominant combination of O’Connell and Minshew gives the Raiders at least a chance to move on from Colorado quarterback Shedule Sanders, who is likely to be drafted by Las Vegas in the 2025 NFL, and Miami’s Cam Ward. They will likely turn their attention to players who can serve as a bridge. draft.

At this point, we all know the Giants made a huge mistake by letting Saquon Barkley become a free agent and sign with a division rival. Now, the Eagles have a chance to take a second step and sign Barkley’s old friend Jones. Jones would be useful insurance behind Jalen Hurts.
Hurts’ current backup is Kenny Pickett, so it’s unlikely they’ll bet on a new development project with Jones, but the Eagles have an opportunity to do their most interesting thing yet.

With Dak Prescott out for the rest of the year, the Cowboys’ season has already become a joke. The absolute best outcome would be for the Cowboys to sign Jones.
Be sure to find out who the Cowboys will play on Thanksgiving Day. you guessed it. Giants.
No one wants to hear their drunk uncle ranting about politics right after an election. The Cowboys could save us from that nightmare and free up Danny Dimes against his old team.

Brian Callahan’s first season as head coach with the Titans didn’t go as planned. Will Reavis and Mason Rudolph are the only two QBs in the room, and neither player seems to be the answer.
The Titans will get a nice draft pick, but it won’t be an overwhelming quarterback class. Perhaps Jones could serve as a bridge quarterback for Tennessee until 2026.
