Ah, the perks of playing in New York.
Sunday was a rough day for the New York Giants quarterback. Daniel Jonesand things didn't get any better for the 27-year-old as he was booed vigorously by his own fans while leaving MetLife Stadium after the brutal defeat.
After taking 28-6 Giants fans, coming off a blowout loss to the Minnesota Vikings in the season opener, were waiting for Jones at the player's gates — and lo and behold, “Danny Penneys” was treated to the highest level of jeers and booing you'd expect from a New Yorker.

For Jones, it was a hellish day capped off by being booed by Giants fans while being dominated by the Vikings.
“I need a million dollars! I need a million dollars!” one fan shouted in a social media video.

Ah, but things get a little rough for Jones…Giants fans were also spotted on video burning his jersey.

Daniel Jones did the right thing by ignoring it and walking away. There's nothing to be gained by responding to a crowd, especially a New Yorker.
And what was he going to say to that?
They were beating him with “Danny Penny” and “I Need a Million Dollars.” (LOL)
