Pat Shurmur Declines to Name Eli Manning as Giants' Week 3 Starter
Giants coach Pat Shurmur did not commit to Eli Manning as the team's starter heading into Week 3.
According to the New York Daily News's Pat Leonard, Shurmur said he did not "want to be dishonest" by saying Manning would get the starting nod when the Giants face the Buccaneers on Sunday, leaving the door potentially open for Daniel Jones to end up under center.
"We're going to talk about everything moving forward," Shurmur said. "To this point, what we've done hasn't been good enough."
Shurmur added that he believes the decision is up to him to make and expects to have one by Wednesday's practice.
