New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones decided to get physical during the club’s joint practice with the Detroit Lions on Monday.

Daniel Jones’ Giants will host the Lions in their first preseason game on Thursday. But let’s just say that both teams are more than ready for the real games to begin if Monday’s practice is an indicator of anything.

Several fights broke out between the two teams during practice. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan shared a video of one altercation, which featured a heated Jones deciding to get physical during the scuffle.

Raanan added that this scuffle broke out one play after a defender hit Daniel Jones’ arm which upset Giants head coach Brian Daboll:

Another scuffle had ensued when Detroit wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and New York corner Dru Phillips got testy after the former caught a pass from Jared Goff:

Jones is usually calm and cool, and quarterbacks in general rarely get involved in fights with opposing teams. Usually, it’s the hulking offensive linemen who do the physical work for the signal-callers.

But Jones apparently had enough of the Lions’ antics to the point where he decided to turn physical himself. That’s one way of winning support from your teammates.

Daniel Jones Is Entering A Make-Or-Break Year

After his career year in 2022, Jones was awarded a lucrative four-year contract extension worth $160 million. Danny Dimes had guided the G-Men to a surprise playoff appearance, as well as their first postseason win in 11 years.

But ones got off to a miserable start in 2023 before suffering a season-ending ACL tear in a game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Jones’ contract is structured so that the G-Men can get out of it next year, with minimal financial ramifications.

So the pressure is entirely on Jones to produce for the Giants this year. If not, the front office and coaching staff will have an easy call to look for a new QB.
