In this episode of "2 Giant Goofballs: A New York Giants Podcast," Drew and Rob tackle the somber news surrounding the New York Giants. The duo opens the show with the unfortunate announcement that starting quarterback Daniel Jones is officially out for the season with a torn ACL, as confirmed by Giants head coach Brian Daboll. They reflect on Jones's season, which was cut short, with two touchdown passes and six interceptions in six games, during the first year of his four-year, $160 million contract.
Daboll sheds light on the situation, revealing that while surgery is imminent, the exact timing remains uncertain. With Jones sidelined, the hosts explore the quarterback options for the Giants, particularly the presence of Tommy DeVito, the sole quarterback currently on the 53-man roster. They also delve into the addition of veteran Matt Barkley, who was signed to the practice squad the previous week and is expected to join the main roster.
To compound the Giants' quarterback woes, backup Tyrod Taylor is on injured reserve for at least three more games due to a rib injury sustained during Week 8 against the New York Jets. Drew and Rob provide insights into the potential timeline for Taylor's return and the implications this has for the team.
