Former Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Jake Fromm made his NFL debut for the New York Giants.
Fromm’s debut came in a 21-6 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, but Fromm was the more impressive of New York’s two quarterbacks on the day. Fromm completed six of 12 passes for 82 yards. Starter Mike Glennon had a rough outing. Glennon completed 13 of 24 passes for 99 yards and threw three interceptions.
New York gave Fromm an opportunity late in the fourth quarter. Fromm’s best throw of the day was a long pass to wide receiver Kenny Golladay:

Fromm has been with the Giants for under a month, so it is tough for him to know the playbook as well as longtime backup Mike Glennon.
The Giants could want to get a better look at Fromm. Glennon (32) is older than Fromm (23). New York is 4-10 and does not have much left to play for.
Buffalo originally drafted Fromm with a fifth-round pick in the 2020 NFL draft, but the Giants signed him off the Bills’ practice squad earlier this month.
Fromm had never thrown a regular-season pass before his debut against the Cowboys.
