Giants Rumors: Daniel Jones' 5th-Year Contract Option Likely Won't Be Picked Up

Daniel Jones has looked like anything but a surefire franchise quarterback during his first three seasons in the NFL, and the New York Giants will reportedly let the 2022 campaign play out before making a decision on 2023.

Jordan Raanan of ESPN reported the NFC East team is increasingly unlikely to pick up the fifth-year option on Jones' contract before the May deadline to do so.

"It seems likely they will pass since he's yet to show any real consistency in his first three seasons as a starting quarterback and it would mean guaranteeing him $20-plus million for 2023," Raanan wrote.
