Giants vs Patriots Preview

Giants starting quarterback Eli Manning will sit out his team’s final preseason tilt, giving 2019 first-round pick Daniel Jones his first start in a New York uniform.

“I’m certainly excited, but I don’t think the preparation changes a whole lot,” Jones said on Monday, according to Giants.com. “I think going through the week we’ll do the same things, and I’ll certainly do the same things to prepare myself to play, so in these last three games I’ve obviously known I’m going to play a good bit, so just the same preparation going into this week.”

Across the Giants’ three prior preseason games, Jones went 25-of-30 for 369 yards, 2 touchdowns, and no interceptions, though he had a trio of fumbles.

“I think I’ve done some good things, and I’ve done some bad things,” Jones said of his preseason, per Giants.com. “More than anything, I have made progress, I feel like, and that’s encouraging to me. When I look to where I was at rookie minicamp and OTAs, I think I’ve improved a good bit since then. Like I said, I think there are a lot of things to still work on. I am encouraged, but I realize there is still a lot of work to be done.”

Like the Giants, the Patriots are undefeated through three preseason games.

Star quarterback Tom Brady didn’t make his first preseason appearance until New England’s 10-3 victory over the Carolina Panthers last week.

The three-time MVP went 8-of-12 for 75 with no touchdowns or interceptions before giving way to 2019 fourth-rounder Jarrett Stidham.

Brian Hoyer, who started under center in the Patriots’ first two preseason matchups, didn’t play.

“Always a good opportunity for us against the Giants,” New England head coach Bill Belichick said on Monday, according to Patriots.com. “This is a good organization, a good football team. I think competing against them at the end of the preseason is always a good way to finish up the preseason, get ready to go and start the season. I think Coach Shurmur’s done a great job down there, really returning to fundamentals, basics, and you can certainly see that in their play in all three phases of the game. This is a long week for us — you know, full week, Thursday to Thursday, so it’s a lot different than last week. Hopefully we can get a lot of things done in terms of moving forward, improving our team and taking a final look at the competition on the roster and making some decisions at the end of the week, then moving on.”
