The New York Giants have once again hitched their wagon to quarterback Daniel Jones, but newly hired general manager Joe Schoen has made it clear the backup position will be addressed this offseason.
“I think backup quarterback is one of the more important positions in the league, so it’s something we’re going to look at, and we’re going to address,” Schoen said at the NFL Combine. “But it’s not just quarterback. I think building depth is going to be a priority. It might be a little bit hard early on, but you can continue to build the team up over the years.”
One potential backup quarterback the Giants have been linked to is Mitchell Trubisky, who has a familiarity with both Brian Daboll and Schoen from their time in Buffalo. However, Trubisky is among the hottest names on the impending free agent market and some believe he’ll get paid starter money.
