New York Giants Sign Daniel Jones to Long-Term Contract Extension

The New York Giants have signed quarterback Daniel Jones to a long-term contract extension, according to reports. The deal is for four years, though financial details have not been disclosed.

Jones, who was drafted by the Giants in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft, has shown promise during his time with the team. In his first two seasons, he has thrown for over 5,000 yards and 35 touchdowns.

The signing of Jones to a long-term deal is seen as a move by the Giants to solidify their quarterback position for years to come. It also frees up cap space for the team to retain star running back Saquon Barkley, who is set to become a free agent after the 2021 season.

Four-Year Deal Allows Team to Retain Saquon Barkley

Barkley, who was drafted by the Giants in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft, has been one of the team’s most productive players when healthy. The Giants are expected to make a strong effort to retain him, and the signing of Jones to a long-term deal could help make that possible.

The Giants are looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2020 season and make a push for the playoffs in 2021. The signing of Jones to a long-term deal is a significant step in that direction, and it will be interesting to see how the team builds around him in the coming years.
