Daniel Jones joined Boomer and Gio live from Giants training camp on Monday morning, and he revealed that he was asked to participate in season two of “Quarterback,” but turned it down.
“I thought it was a great show, I really enjoyed watching it and seeing those guys’ process…but I’m not doing it,” Jones said. “I’ve been asked, and like I said, it was a great show and they did a great job with it.”
Instead, Jones will keep his focus on the upcoming season, and he has plenty of excitement with new weapon Darren Waller at his disposal.
“His talent and ability is off the charts,” Jones said. “I’m excited to get out there with him…he’s been a great addition to the team.”
Jones will have familiar weapon Saquon Barkley back in the fold as well, and while he feels for his teammate after going through tough contract negotiations that nearly led to him sitting out training camp, Jones admires how Barkley navigated the situation.
“I understood the situation and that they could only tag one player, and the other needed to figure out a contract or hit free agency,” Jones said. “I understood that part of it, and it’s tough as a close friend and a teammate. The guy means a ton to the team. But I’m glad they eventually figured something out. It’s a tough situation. I certainly feel for him…but the way he’s handled the situation has been extremely impressive. I have a ton of respect for him.”
