‘I’m not going to say too much about that. I’ve been in contact with him. Our friendship has remained strong throughout my time here.

“It sucks to see how everything turned out there. But I only have good things to say about him. You won’t really find anyone who can really say negative things about him, but it’s the NFL. Hopefully, where then he also finishes next, they go and get a man who comes in and works.

‘It didn’t work for me there. I’m doing well here. Hopefully he can find the same kind of fresh start and success.”

The Giants announced this on Monday on the couch Jones for Tommy DeVito. Jones was demoted to third-string quarterback on the depth chart. On Friday, the Giants announced that Jones had approached owner John Mara and requested his release, which was granted.
