After all, the New York Giants would not be paying Jones almost $3 million ($2.914 million) to sit the bench. Then spring OTAs gave way to mandatory mini-camp, and Jon Halapio gained first-team snaps. Brett Jones was relegated, again, to fight for playing time.
According to Pro Football Reference, Jones has played in 30 games for Big Blue over the course of the past two seasons. During that time, he has started in just 14 of those games. As we know, the vast majority of his starts came last season, replacing the injured Weston Richburg.
