The Daniel Jones era has begun for the Giants as Eli Manning was benched Sunday. Jones completed 23-of-36 passes for 336 yards and 2 TDs, and also had 4 carries for 28 yards and another 2 TDs on the ground in the Giants Week 3 victory over the Bucs. The 38-year-old Manning is in the final year of his contract.

Some notable stats/records from Danny Dimes' debut:
- this was the Giants first victory when being down by 18+ at the half since 1949 (55 straight losses)
- this was the first time in Giants history when a QB threw for 2 TDs and rushed for 2 TDs in a game
- Jones became only the 2nd QB to throw for 2 TDs and rush for 2 TDs in his first NFL start (other player was Eric Hipple in 1981)
