After several days of meetings at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine, Giants officials and Jones’ agents are expected to leave Indianapolis on Sunday without a contract resolution in sight, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported Saturday evening.
The potential of a conflict between striking a deal both sides would be happy with or having to resort to a franchise tag this offseason was always a possibility once New York declined Jones’ fifth-year option ahead of his fourth professional season.
The other possibility at the time would’ve been looking for a new QB had Jones continued to flash potential without concrete results, but instead the former No. 6 overall pick blossomed under the tutelage of new head coach Brian Daboll.
