Search high and low, inside and out, and up and down and it will be difficult to come up with more of a credentialed insider about the Giants, their quarterback of the recent past and their potential quarterback of the near future than Pat Shurmur.
This is a guy who knows his way around the Giants, the big-city market, the pressures that come with filling the most important position on the field, the reasons why Daniel Jones was once coveted, the reasons why he is convinced Shedeur Sanders will make it at the next level and the attributes required for optimal success for any quarterback.
Shurmur was the head coach of the Giants in 2019, when they made Jones the No. 6 selection in that NFL Draft. Shurmur is currently the offensive coordinator at Colorado, where Sanders the past two years vaulted to prominence as an upcoming first-round pick.
It is from this unique vantage point that Shurmur offers a Daniel Jones/Shedeur Sanders comparison that must be acknowledged, if only based on his close connections with both of them.
