A New York Giants quarterback is mulling options

The New York Giants quarterback situation is about to get more complicated this offseason. Quarterback Daniel Jones has free agency coming up. He played well this season, and the Giants will likely franchise tag him or sign him in the coming months. Another Giants quarterback is also considering other options for next season.

According to Adam Schefter, Giants backup quarterback Davis Webb is considering retiring as a player in the NFL. Schefter reports that Webb wants to become an assistant coach in the right situation.

Giants’ backup QB Davis Webb, who was offered Buffalo’s QB coach job last off-season, has expressed interest in starting the transition from player to coach. After securing his first NFL start this season, Webb will consider making the jump to coaching for the right opportunity.
