Case Keenum

There simply aren’t a lot of reasonable backup options out there. The top veteran quarterbacks are all looking for starting jobs, so that leaves players like Keenum available for lesser roles.

Still just 31 years old, Keenum is hardly the veteran some others on this list are, but comparatively, he may be one of the few logical options for a backup to Jones.

There had been some speculation during Pat Shurmur’s two seasons as head coach that he Giants may look to add Keenum, but that never occurred. Now, even with Shurmur gone, it could make some sense because he’d be able to come in and help develop Daniel Jones, but also provide a potential option as a spot starter in the event Jones got injured again.

Most of the other names on this list wouldn’t be great choices in a spot-start scenario, which is the one true advantage Keenum has here.
