Giants general manager Joe Schoen plans to add a quarterback before the 2024 season, but the franchise’s expectation is for Daniel Jones to recover from knee surgery and remain the starter next season.
Schoen said the Giants could draft a quarterback — even in the first round, based on a philosophy to draft the best available player — but he still believes in Jones.
Schoen said the Giants signed current starter Tommy DeVito, an undrafted free agent rookie, to a three-year deal when he was added to the 53-man roster.
Schoen said Jones’ successful knee surgery last week has him on a timeline to return before training camp. Jones, who signed a four-year, $160 million contract in March, said last week that his recovery period could be 8-10 months. Camp begins in eight months.
“So we’ll attack that and approach that, work on that day by day and try to get back as fast as I can,” Jones last week on the “Up & Adams Show.”
Jones, 26, finished with two touchdown passes and six interceptions in six games this season. He also missed three games with a neck injury.
