Giants’ quarterback Plan B in 2025 NFL Draft could include four SEC stars
NY Post
Before he was a Tush Push expert, Jalen Hurts was the type of gift that could make every downtrodden Giants fan feel differently about last week’s win.
There is no greater source of salary-cap relief in NFL team-building than a franchise quarterback on a rookie contract — except a franchise quarterback on a rookie contract who was drafted later than the first round.
The Eagles, who will face the Giants on Sunday, went to a Super Bowl with the former second-round pick Hurts on a four-year, $6 million contract (before he earned a $255 million extension).
The Giants’ search for their future quarterback was complicated Sunday by beating the Colts and slipping from the No. 1 pick to No. 4 in the projected draft order.
If they beat the Eagles’ backups (starters are resting for the playoffs), the Giants could slip as low as No. 9.
Sure, one option will be trading up for Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders or Miami’s Cam Ward.
