The New York Giants are considering shutting down Daniel Jones entirely and making Tim Boyle their emergency third-string quarterback.

Boyle, signed by the Giants to their practice squad on Tuesday, took snaps ahead of Jones during Wednesday’s practice. Head coach Brian Daboll told reporters he hasn’t decided whether Jones or Boyle will be QB3 this week.

Daboll on Monday announced that Tommy DeVito will start for the Giants (2-8) on Sunday against the visiting Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Drew Lock will be his backup, demoting Jones to third string.

At play is a $23 million injury guarantee should Jones play and get hurt. It all but foreshadows that Jones has played his last game in a Giants uniform.

This season, Jones has completed 63.3 percent of his passes for 2,070 yards and eight touchdowns against seven interceptions. The 27-year-old is in the second year of a four-year, $160 million contract. He is due to earn $30 million in base salary in 2025, with $12 million fully guaranteed on the fifth day of the league season.

Boyle, 30, has appeared in 22 career games, going 0-5 as a starter. He’s thrown for 1,087 yards with four touchdowns against 12 interceptions.
