Dan Orlovsky never thought much of Daniel Jones. Orlovsky, who played 12 seasons in the NFL as a backup quarterback and now serves as a well-regarded NFL analyst for ESPN, was not surprised by Jones’ downfall with the Giants.

Bryce Young appears to be the starter for the remainder of the season. Andy Dalton is the backup. So while it doesn't look like there would be a fit here, this is Jones' hometown team and maybe GM Dan Morgan sees a bridge in his future.

#Giants QB Daniel Jones, benched as the starter, has requested his release. The team is expected to grant it. That would mean Jones would go through waivers, which he's likely to clear because of his contract. At that point, he'd be a free agent. pic.twitter.com/xBzc66HMoC
