The reaction from the giant locker room to Daniel Jones, not just being benched, but becoming QB4.

But we mentioned how Woody Johnson wanted Aaron Rogers benched after the fourth week of the season.

0:14.2

Well, now is a very different situation.

0:15.6

They're 3 and 8th.

0:16.2

They're going to have a bye week, and then they're going to come out of the buy week, and let's face it, their season is over. There is a reason to Ben Charon Rogers that I think makes a lot of sense.
