After the signing was announced, Golladay talked about what it meant to him to team up with quarterback Daniel Jones.

I’m still growing as a player, and I feel like me and him can do some good things. We haven’t gotten on the practice field yet, but, me and him both are very excited."

Over the last four seasons, the Giants haven’t had much success. They finished with records of 3-13, 5-11, and 4-12. Last season, under first-year head coach Joe Judge, New York improved to 6-10 and just missed out on a playoff berth in the NFC East.

"We’re trying to do something great here, and that’s what I’m all about," Jones told Golladay.
