The money on the current contract guarantees there wont be a waiver claim. And when signed as a free agent. The giants will be on the hook for whatever guaranteed cash remains. At minimum thats his remaining 2024 salary.

I could see any number of teams signing him to give him a fresh start. Yet once a free agent. He can pick who he is willing to sign with.

Now, the giants did do him a huge favor. Releasing him will be expensive for the Mara clan. Favors aside. If your danny jobes. Wouldnt it be juicy to sign with dallas. Stick it to the giants on turkey day in front of a national audience. Even if its only a 5 or 6 play package.

It is sports entertainment afterall. And such a move is both a sporting jab. As well as an entertaininment coup for Fox, the dallas brand and danny jones ability to get free publicity, claim the narrative. Its not just about being an athlete anymore. Its just as much, if not more. The ability to own your own story.

If im his agent. Im already on the phone with Jerry. Possibly fox as well. Wink/ nod to the Murdoch's, help Jerry sign Danny to save the ratings eh old boy.

Then again. Maybe DJ goes trans and instead inks with the new womens volleyball league. Its become a crazy, crazy world. Things that make sense no long do.

What is obvious, to me anyway. Jones benching destroyed the giants lockeroom. Undermining gm Joe Schoen & hc Brian Dabol. Cutting Jones is a desperate attempt to allow those 2 to finish out their contracts which run through 2026.

Eating Jones guaranteed cash? I amagine is a bitter pill. Eating the contracts of the coaches & Jones? Thats the type stuff that gives old billionaires a stroke.... And Jerry Jones a chance to get the spotlight shining elsewhere.
