The Eagles Will Likely Play Against Eli Manning on Monday Night
Wow, looks like Daniel Jones is going to be OUT for Monday night’s banger in Philadelphia:
Daniel Jones in a boot + has moderate high ankle sprain, per Pat Shurmur. He couldn’t play if Giants had game today. Shurmur compared it to what Saquon Barkley had, slightly less severe. Barkley missed three games. So get ready for the return of Eli Manning on Monday vs Eagles.

BREAKING: Daniel Jones will very likely miss Monday’s game against Eagles, which means Eli Manning is back as the starting quarterback for the Giants.
Jones’ right ankle is in a protective boot. He won’t practice today and tomorrow and Pat Shurmur says injury similar to Saquon.

Nice break for the Eagles.
Jones had a poor game against Green Bay, but put up a couple of of four-touchdown performances in recent weeks, which is better than anything Eli Manning has done in the last season or two.
But –
Can you imagine if the Birds lose to Eli on Monday night? Good God I don’t even want to think about it. I thought the Miami loss was rock bottom but that would be rock bottom-er. Rock bottom-est. It would be whatever is below rock bottom, if that’s possible.
They have to beat this guy, or else just cancel the rest of the season:
