Here's a look at potential candidates for Daniel Jones' next team.
List the most plausible scenarios first.
cowboys
This would be an attractive and tasty scenario, not only because Dallas is the Giants' rival, but because both teams will be playing each other on Thanksgiving.
With Dak Prescott out for the season, Jones would be an upgrade as the backup to Cooper Rush.
Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said Friday that the team has no interest in signing Jones, but you never know what he'll do with the Cowboys.
jets
Another attractive possibility.
The Jets are likely to release Aaron Rodgers after this season, and will need a veteran QB to draft in April.
The Jets' current backup is Tyrod Taylor, who backed up Jones with the Giants.
Raiders
Gardner Minshew was a poor starter, throwing only eight touchdowns and nine interceptions. Las Vegas has 2 wins and 6 losses with Minshew at quarterback.
His backup, Aidan O'Connell, fared even worse, going 0-2 with 2 TDs and 2 interceptions while throwing for 455 yards.
panthers
Bryce Young, the No. 1 overall pick in 2023, led the team to two consecutive wins, but struggled and was on the bench, and could be looking for more opportunities next season.
His backup, Andy Dalton, is 37 years old.
dolphin
Starter Tua Tagovailoa is extremely injury-prone and has a history of concussions.
He has already missed more than a month this season, and the Dolphins have struggled badly in his absence.
colts
Anthony Richardson is playing better, tapping out and then tapping in.
His backup, Joe Flacco, is elderly and likely to retire after this season.
