Jake Fromm looking for a new NFL home
The NFL’s New York Giants are rebuilding their quarterback room, and it doesn’t look like former UGA standout Jake Fromm is part of the plan.
Comments
Welcome to the USFL, Jake.
Class guy, will always be grateful for his play at UGA....wish he would have stayed another year. Hope he has success wherever he ends up.
Real estate, law school, and/or grad assistant for coaching.
Giants (nor Buffalo) were good fits (Jake's not a plug-and-play back-up for a QB in the style O run by either team). But when he got the chance, he simply had to play better. There was a lot of positive energy directed his way in NY (fans and staff both). But to hear him talking about needing to get his feet right on a pass, and missing six-yard patterns, that won't cut it. Is it possible that the unflappable Jake was actually.... nervous. I'd buy that and it would make a heck of a lot of sense. So just own that and shake it off.
Finally, the NYGs were a dumpster fire offensively, regardless of who was back there, so not the best environment. They don't even know if Daniel Jones is their guy. That organization is a mess, hopefully to get better soon.
Meanwhile, best of luck to Jake. I'd say take one more shot, see who'll listen and work you out, and be sure you laid it all out there before moving on. But he doesn't ask me for advice so there you go. A DGD for sure.
Hypothetical question, for entertainment purposes, only. It's the start of the 2021 season. Fromm stays another year. Does uga win the natty? I say yes, AND the SECCG.
Hindsight is 20/20. The last statement in the article says it all. "Curiously decided to forego his Senior season." In his player development that was a very big mistake. He is paying for it now. Like so many other UGA qbs, very good to great collegiate players that have fizzled as pros for some reason. Yikes.
Kirby needs him on staff!
How many of those early jumpers from that class are left in the NFL?
