Danny “Dimes” is what his teammates called him as a Rookie on the Giants.
Because he was “throwing dimes”, or perfect passes. But only when he was throwing perfect passes, which as the #6 overall pick he should have always been doing.
He hated the nickname, and it seems pretty obvious his teammates were fucking with him. But after being traded to a new team, beating out the guy who was supposed to be the face of the team for starting QB and a recent top 10 pick, and then playing an amazing week 1 people are using it again.
So definitely a deep cut, and I’m honestly I’m surprised it took this long for someone to ask. I think a lot of people just blindly upvoted.
But Daniel Jones is known for “throwing dimes” and this guy’s dad “dropped a dime”.
