Giants HC Pat Shurmur Praises Daniel Jones: QB 'Will Be Ready' When It's Time

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur is happy with Daniel Jones' performance through two preseason games.

After the Giants' 32-13 win over the Chicago Bears on Friday, Shurmur praised his rookie quarterback following his 11-of-14 for 161 yards and one touchdown showing.

"People outside of our building seem surprised," he told reporters. "We're not. That's why we picked him. And I think he's making good progress as he goes along here. He's checking off all the boxes. When it's his time to play, he will be ready. I'm pleased with the progress he's making.
