Daniel Jones continues Eli Manning tradition with Duke workout

Error 0:

Daniel Jones said last week in Miami that he planned to continue one of Eli Manning’s traditions: Gathering Giants wide receivers for some throwing and route-running sessions in the offseason. Given that Manning often ran these sessions at Duke, it made sense that Jones would do the same, given that he actually played at Duke.

“We’ll figure it out, see what everyone’s thinking and try to do the best thing for everyone,’’ Jones said.

As it turns out, Jones acted on this quickly. On Tuesday, he was at his alma mater, leading a group of his targets that included Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton, as Jones looks to build on his promising rookie year.
