00:00Daniel Jones's time as the starting quarterback of the New York Giants is now officially come

00:09to a close. Does Danny Dimes have any more shelf life available as a starting quarterback

00:15anywhere else around the National Football League? Joe, in terms of the contract, the

00:21four-year $160 million contract extension given to Daniel Jones before the start of

00:262023 because it was his best career year in his first year with Brian Dayball as his

00:32head coach, leading, of course, the Giants to an upset victory in a playoff game against

00:38the Minnesota Vikings. That sealed his fate, still as the face of the franchise in New

00:43York. But, of course, that is no longer the case. You see those stats? They're not very

00:49good. 85 total touchdowns to 73 total turnovers. That's not good. And a 24-44-1 quarterback

00:58record. Wins and losses are always tied to a quarterback, fair or not. So buy or sell,

01:05Geronery, Daniel Jones's days as a starting quarterback in the National Football League

01:11are over. I'm selling this, Ben, because I don't think they're over. I think he's 27

01:20years old. And I think over the next year or two, he will be a backup quarterback in

01:27the NFL with a organization, which is fine, which is he's already made $106 million in

01:34his career at the Giants. So financially, he's good to go. But at 27 years old, didn't

01:40we already do this with Baker Mayfield and Sam Donald? And we acted as if they were never

01:45going to start again. And then they land with the right coach and the right organization.

01:50And just like that, they get their second opportunity with a whole lot of experience

01:55underneath their belt. So you can't say his days are over as a starter. It's the NFL.

02:03And there aren't that many quality quarterbacks in the world that can play that position.

02:08So I'm going to sell on that here, Ben. Just look at Sam Donald and Baker Mayfield.
