Daniel Jones’ Worst Moment of the Day: The Sack-Fumble

Yet again, a turnover put a stain on Daniel Jones’ performance. It was the oh-so similar sack that Jones never saw coming with the defender hitting his arm and body and forcing the ball loose. Maxx Crosby and Ngakoue both did a good job of holding onto Jones and ensuring he wouldn’t recover the ball.

The NY Giants lost the ball at their own 27-yard line on the first play of the drive.

Yet again, Jones’ turnover directly led to points for the other team. Thankfully, the New York defense held strong and forced the field goal to only go down three points at 10-7.

Jones needs to remove the turnover from his game on a consistent basis once and for all. It’s frustrating for the offense that he has been unable to avoid these types of plays and have a better feel of the oncoming pressure his way.
