On Monday afternoon, NFL insider Ian Rapoport appeared on former NFL player and current podcaster Pat McAfee’s show to break down some of the NFL offseason’s biggest stories.
Among topics discussed included that of the contract negotiations regarding New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones. Those negotiations garnered a significant amount of media attention after the fourth-year signal caller reportedly asked for $45 million a year and switching agencies after the Giants rebuked his proposed price tag.
When the two sat down to discuss Jones, McAfee was quick to ask Rapoport, one of the league’s most well-connected insiders, if Jones’ request for $45 million was accurate or simply a negotiation tactic.
