Ex-Giants Center Shaun O'Hara: Daniel Jones Is a Blend of Eli, Peyton Manning

Eli Manning plus Peyton Manning equals Daniel Jones, according to former New York Giants center Shaun O'Hara.

"If you put Peyton Manning and Eli Manning in a blender, [Jones is] what you get," O'Hara told SNY's Ralph Ralph Vacchiano.

The Giants selected Jones with the No. 6 pick in the April draft out of Duke. However, while the 6'5", 221-pound quarterback presumably represents the future of the franchise, 38-year-old Eli Manning is expected to maintain the starting job for at least one more season.

"I chuckle at the reports you hear weekly about how Eli can't play quarterback and he's washed up," O'Hara added while at the Landon Collins Celebrity Softball Classic on Saturday.
