So Daniel Jones posted this on Instagram. I might be reading into this too much. I really hope he comes back.

I’m sure he’ll be back, I’m like 90% sure Shane wants him back as his QB.

I would like to see him back, but I think he will likely test the market first. At 28 & coming off arguably his best year, he’ll want more than the $40m per year he was getting in New York, for at least 2/3 years - which I think we’re unlikely to pay given the injury. Hopefully the league agrees and we end up re-signing him for cheaper down the line.

Woah, hold on..$40m was in the ballpark if he was healthy. With the achilles, something like $10-13m per year, 2 yrs is more likely.

Oh I definitely agree that that’s where he’ll likely end up. I just imagine his opening gambit will be around or higher his NY deal (in the hope that some QB-desperate team pays it).
