It’s been a rocky run for New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones. He seems to be good enough to be a starter in the NFL, and that’s the role he currently holds.

But is he good enough to be a starter on a good team?

That is the question for the Giants, who have a decision to make on Jones here real soon. In fact, that decision will need to take place within the next month.

The decision? Whether to exercise the fifth-year option on Jones’ contract.

Jones discussed the subject in a Zoom meeting with reporters on Monday, when the Giants’ started their offseason program under new head coach Brian Daboll. For the record, Jones said he’s not really focused on the aforementioned money matters at the moment.

"There will be a time and a place for those conversations," he told reporters. "We’ll see and we’ll take care of that, we’ll do that when it comes up. But I’m focused on what we’re doing here and preparing and taking advantage of every day we have here together."
