With the New York Giants losing Daniel Jones for more than a year and several questions about his future with the organization, most people believe they’re going to pursue a quarterback in the upcoming edition of the NFL Draft.

Considering their record and the fact that they’re likely to pick in the top five, that should be their approach.

Notably, Giants GM Joe Schoen didn’t rule out that possibility, stating that the team will take the best player available when they’re on the clock (via Talkin’ Giants).

This shouldn’t be much of a surprise.

Still, some people would’ve expected Schoen to make it loud and clear that they don’t intend to replace Jones and that he’s going to be their quarterback for the future, even if he’s forced to miss the first half of next season.

This speaks volumes of the team’s assessment of Jones’ struggles this season.

The Giants signed Jones to a huge contract in the offseason, with $80 million fully guaranteed over the first couple of seasons.

He regressed vastly from his career-best year, up to the point where it seemed like HC Brian Daboll was starting to lose his patience.

And after watching both Tyrod Taylor and undrafted rookie QB Tommy DeVito fare better than him, it’s no surprise that the Giants are having second thoughts about the Duke product.

With the likes of Caleb Williams, Bo Nix, Drake Maye, Jaden Daniels, and Michael Penix Jr. all available in the first round, the Giants would be wise to get their next franchise QB in late April.

Bears Are Reportedly Doing ‘Serious Homework’ On 1 Coaching Candidate

Interim head coach Thomas Brown hasn’t won a game, leading most to believe there is little chance he gets any consideration to be the permanent replacement. With that in mind, the Bears reportedly are looking into other possible candidates. “The Bears are looking for a ‘leader of men’ for their opening at HC, and GM Ryan Poles has been doing ‘serious homework’ on [Miami] Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver, per Dianna Russini,” JPAFootball wrote on X.

Lakers Given Notable Odds To Make NBA Finals

This year, the betting markets believe they have a chance of competing for a championship, but it’s not a huge one. According to Polymarket, the Lakers have an eight percent shot of going to the Finals. Even with some smart acquisitions and Luka Doncic starting his first full season with the team, the Lakers still have their work cut out for them.

Standout Packers RB Gets Nominated For Notable NFL Award

With Josh Jacobs out with a knee injury, someone would have to step up to lead the way against the Minnesota Vikings. Fortunately for them, backup RB Emanuel Wilson was more than up to the task. That’s why, after his strong performance, it’s not much of a surprise to see him being nominated for the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week: “Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12,” Kruse posted on X. #Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12. — Zach Kruse (@zachkruse2) November 24, 2025 Wilson was shifty and explosive out of the backfield. He forced missed tackles left and right, and he was a factor with his pass blocking and reliable hands in the passing game as well. It was a much-welcome per...
