There will be a lot of defining moments this offseason that determine whether or not the New York Giants team makes an improvement going into the 2019 season, and one of them will be Eli Manning and the quarterback situation. We’ve talked plenty about potential draft picks and free agents at quarterback, but what about the player that the Giants already have at the position?
Eli Manning has the largest cap hit for 2019, coming in above even Odell Beckham Jr., and that will have an impact on putting together a winning team for this season. This year is the last one on Manning’s current contract but will cost the Giants $23M, and it’s impossible to just write that number off or say that it’s deserved based on last season’s play alone.
