How Daniel Jones’ ‘Eli Moment’ became this Giants epic

TAMPA, Fla. — It was fourth-and-Hollywood ending, and directly in front of him as clear as day was this glorious paydirt, and the prospect of a comeback that would make the best possible opening chapter in any Legend of Daniel Jones.

So Jones took what they gave him, these longest 7 yards, and this Comeback Kid they call Danny Dimes, but could also call Crazylegs, was in the end zone with 1:16 remaining, and he was screaming, and rookie receiver Darius Slayton was screaming along with him.

“That’s the most emotion I think I’ve seen him show,” Slayton told The Post.
