While the New York Giants might say they want a nice, quiet training camp and preseason, things have not been “business as usual” in the lead-up to the 2019 season. That is because for the first time since 2004, the Giants don’t know whether or not Eli Manning will be finishing the season as their starting quarterback. Not only do the Giants have a highly drafted rookie quarterback in Daniel Jones, but Eli Manning is in the last year of his contract.
These are uncharted waters for the Giants.
John Mara spoke to the media for the first time since March on Tuesday and was asked about Eli’s status going forward.
