The New York Giants finally cut the cord on the Daniel Jones experiment.
It was a long and winding road for the G-Men, even costing them their best player in recent history.
Even so, that’s not the end of Jones in the National Football League, not by a landslide.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the ever-struggling signal-caller will still have a place in the league.
Talking on ESPN Radio’s “UNSPORTSMANLIKE,” Schefter reported that the Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings are two of the teams with the strongest mutual interest in pursuing Jones.
The latest on Daniel Jones:
Ravens and Vikings could be two of (not the only) teams Daniel Jones has conversations with. @AdamSchefter imagines we get a decision sometime this week on where Daniel Jones lands. pic.twitter.com/C7wIcI5bc4

Jones reportedly wants to play for a Super Bowl contender where he can play meaningful games.
Moreover, the fact that he didn’t sign with anybody shortly after clearing waivers made Schefter feel like the Ravens might be in the lead, as they played on Monday Night Football and needed more time to have conversations with him.
This feels like an odd approach by Jones.
If anything, he should be looking to play for a struggling team with a bad quarterback to compete for a starting spot and prove whether he can play.
Barring a major disaster or injuries, he won’t see the field with the Ravens or Vikings.
He makes sense for them as an upgrade to their current backups, but he’s not a realistic choice to start for them at any point.
