A biography for Daniel Joneshasn’t been written yet.
“We haven't scored enough points. We haven't done things well enough. I take responsibility for that. As a quarterback, you play a big role in those things.”
“It's about what you do consistently over the course of the season.”
“The opportunity to learn from a guy like Eli, to watch him, the way he carries himself day in and day out, would be a tremendous learning opportunity for a young guy. That'd be an awesome situation.”
“As a quarterback, you want to have an idea of what everyone is doing and be able to help everyone out.”
“Playing football is what I love to do, so to be able to do that in the NFL, and then be able to do that in New York with a franchise like the New York Giants is an incredible opportunity, and something I try not to take for granted.”
“I play outside the pocket if I need to.”
“Physically, I think I can make every throw on the field.”
“I was fortunate to have the opportunity to graduate from one of the most respected academic institutions in the world while growing and maturing through a football experience that taught me far more than the game itself.”
“I think my job is to do what I can to improve, to make sure I'm taking the right steps to make sure the offense is moving forward to the extent I can help it.”
“Growing up in Charlotte, I watched Coach Cutcliffe transform the Duke football program into a true force within the ACC with annual bowl eligibility and championship expectations.”
“Playing early on, you learn a lot of football, and there's no better experience than to get out there and play.”
“I think if you're looking externally for confidence, then you're also going to be affected by the negative as well.”
“I feel like I've made some progress and developed a better understanding of game management, situations in the game, when it's more appropriate to be more aggressive.”
“A lot of coaches want to get an idea, especially when they're getting to know players, what kind of stuff they like to run, what they're comfortable running, what they're good at. I think that's important.”
“I'm not a rah-rah guy or not a guy that's gonna spend a whole lot of time doing that, but I think I connect with people personally.”
“That's kind of the job in a sense... you need to be able to protect the football and be aggressive and aggressively take what they give you as a quarterback.”
“I think it's important playing quarterback to be able to kind of keep a level head and not get too high, too low.”
“With more experience, you need to process more information faster, and that's expected of me.”
“I think anyone who comes to New York is probably coming into a situation with more attention than they had previously.”
“It's not on any one person more than the other. It's about everyone executing together as a unit. That's how we're going to create explosive plays, be a productive offense.”
