Thursday night is a big night for the New York Giants. Not because they are playing the New York Jets in a preseason. That doesn’t matter. Not even a little bit.
It is a big night because it is the first time the organization — and the fan base — will see Daniel Jones, the quarterback in whose hands the team’s future rests, in game action.
Now, if Jones plays well that doesn’t mean he should be anointed as a star and Eli Manning should immediately be sent to the bench.
