The hope of Daniel Jones lies in these two passes.

With wide receiver Darius Slayton lined up to the right of the formation, Jones drops back and waits for the third-year receiver to make his move. Slayton darts upfield, makes a cut to his left and then darts to the right. Jones lofts a perfectly-thrown pass to Slayton over the outstretched arms of the defender.
