Not everyone understands the Giants’ decision to make Daniel Jones the seventh highest-paid quarterback in the NFL.

That includes Jaquan Brisker, the starting safety for the No. 32 defensive DVOA Chicago Bears.

“MVP lol… Other bruh got paid today and is a trash fam. #FACTS,” Brisker said, responding to a fan who lamented Lamar Jackson being placed on the franchise tag instead of receiving a contract extension.

Giants receiver Darius Slayton spoke out against Brisker and tweeted the score of the two teams’ Week 4 game, which the Giants won 20-12.

Jones struggled as a passer in this game.

He completed eight passes on 13 attempts, throwing for 71 yards and zero touchdown passes.

Jones left the game with an injury (and later returned after backup Tyrod Taylor was also injured).

Jones didn’t have to throw much when he was on the field that game.

The Giants rushed for a total of 282 yards and two touchdowns, both by Jones.

Brisker had a sack of Jones in that game, but overall he played one of his worst games of the season in Week 4, according to Pro Football Focus.

The rookie’s Week 4 performance was his third-worst of the season as the Giants torched the Bears’ running defense.

Brisker played 39 snaps in run defense this week, the most on the team.

Jones on Tuesday agreed to a massive four-year $160 million extension, of which $82 million was guaranteed.
