Giants’ other quarterback battle is one of survival

Of the four quarterbacks on the Giants’ roster, Kyle Lauletta and Alex Tanney are the other guys in a room dominated by Eli Manning and rookie Daniel Jones. There will be some sort of quarterback competition at the top of this food chain, if you listen to coach Pat “I’m not trying to be cryptic’’ Shurmur, with Manning as the starter and Jones, after an impressive spring, looking to close the gap this summer.

The bottom-feeders, Lauletta and Tanney, are in an elimination match, two fighting for one spot. And, who knows? If Jones can convince the coaching staff he is ready to play whenever called upon, Shurmur might opt to save a roster spot for another position and go with just two quarterbacks.
