He was taken out of the game with about 7 minutes left, and was greeted with chants of “Daniel Jones & MVP” from the rowdy Giants Crowd.”

The Giants will be concluding their regular season on the following Sunday with a 1pm ET game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. This game will be a key match up as the Eagle will look to clinch a first round bye.
