The New York Giants have decided to bench their starting quarterback, Daniel Jones, following a 2-8 start to the season. This move comes after the team's bye week, with the Giants opting to replace Jones with Tommy DeVito as their new starting quarterback. The decision was influenced by Jones' performance, which included a 24-44-1 record as a starter, a 3-13 record in his last 16 games, and a 10/13 touchdown to interception ratio over that span. The team's management has framed this as a 'football decision', despite the clear financial implications, including avoiding a $23 million injury guarantee for Jones in 2025, with $12 million of that already guaranteed. Tommy DeVito, who has shown promise in relief appearances, will now lead the team as they face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12.
