But, as it turns out, the beginning of the end may have arrived far sooner than Jones's benching. Multiple players told ESPN's Jordan Raanan that the quarterback's relationship with coach Brian Daboll "appeared different" during the 2024 season, with one player even calling the dynamic between the player and coach "weird."

The best result is now probably for the team to lose as many games as possible, get a high draft pick and select the QB of the future with it. However, despite promises from ownership, head coach Brian Daboll may not survive a winless (or near-winless) stretch run after starting the campaign 2-8.

This week, Daboll had to finally make the decision to bench starting quarterback Daniel Jones, a move that was not a surprise given how the Giants' season has unfolded. Jones is basically done as a Giant and that may not sit well with some of his teammates.

The New York Giants decision to bench Daniel Jones coming out of the Week 11 bye in place of Tommy DeVito isn't a universally beloved call from those inside the locker room. Recently, star defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence offered his dissenting position,

The New York Giants can "justify" selecting "inconsistent" Alabama QB Jalen Milroe in the 2025 NFL draft if head coach Brian Daboll stays.

New York Giants owner John Mara said previously he did not "anticipate" firing Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll, but have things changed?
