Kurt Warner, Shannon Sharpe on Daniel Jones: Can’t play behind that OL

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones began this season as a hot topic of the media talking heads. Many defended the Giants’ decision to sign him to a $160 million extension while others scoffed, saying Jones wasn’t worth the money.

Thus far this season, the Giants offense and Jones have fallen flat on their faces. They are next to last in points scored and dead last in yards gained.

Two Hall of Fame players-turned-analysts, Kurt Warner and Shannon Sharpe, both took to social media to weigh in on Jones and the Giants’ troubles this season.

Jones has been sacked 28 times so far this season, one short of Washington’s Sam Howell (29), who leads the league.

The Giants, meanwhile, have the lowest-graded pass protection (30.4) in the NFL by a somewhat large margin. And two of their linemen graded out at 0.0 in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins.
