Twitter Had Strong Reactions To The News That Eli Manning Was Getting Benched For Geno Smith

Giants, Eli Manning and Geno Smith were all mocked after surprising announcement.

The 2-9 Giants announced Tuesday that Geno Smith would start at quarterback this Sunday against the Raiders. That means two-time Super Bowl winner Eli Manning is headed to the bench. New York coach Ben McAdoo also said that rookie quarterback Davis Webb would see some action against Oakland.

Twitter always has strong reaction to news, but things were at a level 10 right after the shocking switch was announced. Basically, nobody was safe from getting ripped and/or laughed at.
