Eli Manning Speaks After Getting Benched for Daniel Jones: 'I'm not happy about it."
Eli Manning addressed the media on Wednesday for the first time since being benched for rookie quarterback Daniel Jones on Tuesday.
"In some ways, I signed up for this. When you draft young quarterbacks this is gonna happen," Manning said at the Giants' facility in East Rutherford, N.J. "I got to live with it and make the best of it. I knew there was a possibility and said 'Hey, I'll handle it, I'll support [Jones] and be a good teammate, and do what I'm told.'"
