Eagles Ex LeSean McCoy Blasts Giants QB Daniel Jones: 'Like A Garage!'
Former Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy is well aware of the intense rivalry between his old team and the New York Giants, and he certainly hasn't shied away from expressing his feelings about it.
While appearing on FS1's Speak, McCoy seized the opportunity to throw shade at Giants quarterback Daniel Jones. The show's panel had compared Jones to a house, suggesting that he would appreciate in value over time, but McCoy disagreed with this comparison.
"Who is Daniel Jones, though? Daniel Jones isn't even a condo. He's like a garage. You can rent a garage out," McCoy said.
McCoy continued to call out Jones, as he believes the quarterback isn't improving with each season.
"Are we really going to sit here and act like Daniel Jones is this superstar quarterback?" McCoy said. "You're supposed to get better and better each year, right? I can't even say he's getting better each year. ... When a defense comes to play the Giants, you really think they're talking about Daniel Jones?"
Last season showcased a notable stride forward for Jones, as he threw for 3,205 yards and 15 passing touchdowns, while also making contributions on the ground with 708 rushing yards and seven touchdowns. His performance played a pivotal role in leading the Giants to a playoff victory, as they defeated the Minnesota Vikings 31-24 in the NFC Wild Card.
These achievements led to him securing a four-year, $160 million extension in the offseason. However, the pressure is now on Jones to prove that last season's success was not a fluke. McCoy and other doubters will be watching closely this year, waiting to see if he can maintain his performance or if their skepticism will be validated.
