What happened: Chase Daniel discussed New York's quarterback situation during an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show. He pointed to the calendar, saying the opening weeks leave room for Giants to stabilize.

What to watch: New York's practice reps and staff comments this week will show the direction. The Steelers game provides the first measure of the adjustment.
