Daniel Jones completely lost it after the Giants’ cruel two-point game

Daniel Jones completely lost it after the Giants’ cruel two-point game

Daniel Jones was angry after some of the Giants didn’t appear ready for the two-point conversion play following a critical touchdown in Monday’s loss to the Steelers.

The Giants had just pulled within 23-15 after an electrifying 45-yard touchdown run by Tyrone Tracy Jr. with 11:07 left in Monday night’s game in Pittsburgh.

Big Blue decided to be aggressive and went for two instead of the extra point, hoping to potentially take the lead with a touchdown later in the game.

Jones fended off the snap on the two-point conversion attempt, turned left and threw it to Malik Nabers in what looked like a scripted picket fence play.

But something funny happened – or not.

The Giants linemen didn’t move, allowing a Steelers defender to get to Nabers unhindered – and hit him hard before the rookie receiver could secure the ball.

The usually stoic Jones immediately became enraged, reaching down with his fist and pulling off the helmet straps while appearing to say, “What the hell are we doing?” Goddammit” on the field.

He was still hot when he reached the sideline and chatted briefly with head coach Brian Daboll, who had a few questioning words to Jones.

It was a frustrating season for the Giants, who fell to 2-6 with the setback from 26-18.
