QB crush: How the Giants fell head over heels for Daniel Jones

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Larry McNulty's voice drops as he talks of that day his quarterback at North Carolina's Charlotte Latin School almost snapped in half. His tone indicates a cross between amazement and admiration.

The way McNulty remembers the moment, Charlotte Christian outside linebacker Jeb Blazevich came storming untouched off the edge. Latin quarterback Daniel Jones, the same player the New York Giants would later select No. 6 overall out of Duke in the 2019 NFL draft last week, was blasted with a crushing blindside hit.
