Malik Nabers Rips Giants Offense, Calls Out Brian Daboll
With the Giants now 2-9 and last in the NFC East division, you can imagine that frustrations are beginning to show in their locker room. Those frustrations boiled over after the loss for Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers who expressed his disdain for the Giants offense, offense, which he described as "soft as f—k." The star wide receiver also noted that all the blame can't be put on the quarterback, namely Jones.
"Obviously, it ain't the quarterback," Nabers said. "Same outcome when we had DJ at quarterback. Take a look: It ain't the quarterback."
Nabers also expressed his frustration with the lack of targets, calling out head coach Brian Daboll in the process.
"First, second quarter, I don't get the ball. Start getting targets at the end. I mean, can't do nothing. Start getting the ball when it's 30-0. What do you want me to do?" Nabers said
"Talk to Dabes about that/ They come up to me and ask me what plays I want and that was that. I don't know."
Daniel Jones Expected to Have Multiple Suitors
Despite his struggles during his Giants tenure, former quarterback Daniel Jones is expected to command a lot of attention as a new free agent. But according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter, Jones doesn't want to go to just any team, he prefers to play for a contender.
"Jones, who was officially waived Saturday by the Giants, is expected to have multiple options but likely will prefer to finish the season on a playoff contending team, where he will be involved in big games, rather than going to a meandering quarterback-needy team not remotely in playoff contention, according to sources," Schefter writes.
"Multiple playoff contending teams are likely to inquire about Jones and his level of interest, but it will not be long before Jones is finishing the season somewhere other than New York."
Schefter also notes that the Ravens and Vikings are expected to be interested.
"The Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings are two of the likeliest teams to land Jones, sources said, but they are hardly the only ones. Jones wants to sign with a playoff contender, and what happens Sunday and Monday is expected to influence his decision, sources said," Schefter added.
