During his illustrious career and the six year failed Jones experiment, this is what I’ll remember the most. Nothing but turf for the score and he trips himself.
Aside from one playoff win which may have set us back another five years, what do you remember Jones for??

Turf monster’s greatest stop
Despite being way over drafted and put behind terrible offensive lines, Jones always remained professional. I’ll remember a tough, hard worker that just did not have the quick decision making / processing skills to be a starting NFL QB.
It’s up there with the butt fumble, this is definitely his most memorable moment
For me, this will always be remembered as “the stumble”.
Actually a pretty good summation of the whole DJ experience. He was always almost there
Him genuinely being a starter QB for more than half a decade with his resume
It’s not even a single standout moment really I can go to just that
Cue all the “he’s a nice guy, hard worker, first in the building last out, great teammate, well respected” comments
The whitest thing he ever did.
Still don’t understand how he tripped like that
I’ll always remember the play from Seattle last year where there was an obvious blitzing nickel corner and he just fucking stood there like a statue. I knew it, you knew it, the broadcasters knew it, but Jones was blind and got obliterated. Watching the corner come down on him was like in slow motion for me
I’ll remember him for the 70+ yard run before that.
I’ll remember him for the playoff win. Everything around this team is already so negative. I don’t see a reason to add on.
You have the Eli face where it’s just a funny meme that adds on to his legend. Then you have DJ getting taken out by a sniper. You laugh at first too but then you slowly withdraw your smile and end up shaking your head in disappointment.
Him tripping like that and the MIN playoff game where he was unstoppable. Years from now, those will be my only 2 real memories..
And Rex Ryan hyping him up because he won’t a high school state basketball championship with a broken clavicle.
“He’S SO tOUgh and PrOFESsIonAl!”
Good night, sweet prince
How trash he was on the field, how long of an extended time he got to be trash on the field. All the assets and cuts that went into trying to not make him trash on the field, and him still be trash on the field after 6 seasons of cope from his trash collecting cult.
Great personality though! As non-existent as it was..
To the people that will say “The Giants still scored on that play what’s the big deal”, that is not the point. The play symbolizes his career. He’s not elite or someone who can get taken seriously. You don’t see elite guys having moments like this ever. This could have been such a cool moment he ruined and people just laughed. No one cares the team scored in the drive, that part is irrelevant when looking at this in a vacuum.
He makes it in on this run we probably win (they kicked a FG if I remember correctly) and win the division at 7-9. Then Judge likely coaches 2022 and we stink and the whole experiment is over before the 2023 season. How one play changes an organization
He should never have been a starter in the NFL. What a disaster of a pick.
For him, his career was a resounding success. Walking away with 81M+ dollars for being an objectively bad QB is a deal we’d all take in an instant.
This is when anyone with half a brain knew this kid wan’t it.
Throwing the ball directly to the bengals last month 😭
I’m going to do my best to forget about him completely
I’ll remember Jones most for his loyal, dedicated, hard working fans. They never miss an opportunity to shit on literally every other player or coach with the team.
To the Jonestown crew, Jones is perpetually one more lineman, one more receiver, or one more running back away from greatness. And for that, I’ll never forget them.
I’ll remember him for that playoff win. That was the happiest the Giants have made me since 2012
lol I remember him running like gazelle and tumbling down in hindsight this was very for shadowing of our future … and there was no defenders in front
I’ll remember him for the Wild Card record setting playoff win in Minnesota
what a dingus.
The man played tough. Handled the media well. Despite the missteps (pun intended), he had some potential. Definitely too fast for his own good on the play pictured. I can respect some of what he did. I don’t wish him ill will. I hope he finds success elsewhere, even as, mostly likely, a backup. I am glad that his time with Giants will be done, though. It’s time. The Vikings playoff game was fun, at least.
Daniel Jonestown Massacre
This will be on his gravestone.
I will remember how anytime he had a good game in the first 4 years we’d rush to declare him “the guy”, then he’d be bad for 5 games and then he’d have a good game and be “the guy” again and on and on and on and all of the sudden I’m 6 years older and my team still stinks.
He always looked angry and/or confused 😡
I never thought he would work out. I wasn’t impressed with him at Duke. Thought we drafted him far too early.
Was willing to suspend disbelief and there were a few times I’ll admit I had hope.
