  Giants | Davis Webb ready to hang up his cleats?    Tue Jan 24, 03:19 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb recently expressed interest in beginning the transition from player to coach and will consider making the jump to coaching for the right opportunity as soon as this offseason, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Footballguys view: We could see Webb turn into the next Kellen Moore (Cowboys OC) as he goes from backup QB to coach in the NFL. A third-round pick out of Cal in the 2017 NFL draft, Webb turned down an opportunity to be the Bills' QB coach in 2022. It sounds like he's more open to making that transition now.

  Giants | Davis Webb locks up spot?    Sun Aug 28, 11:00 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb 'all but secured a spot' on the 53-man roster with his performance in the preseason finale against the New York Jets Sunday, Aug. 28, in the opinion of Michael Baca of NFL.com.

Footballguys view: Tyrod Taylor was banged up in the preseason finale with a minor back injury. Daniel Jones is the starter, and Taylor is his primary backup. That means Webb sits as the no.3 quarterback on the depth chart. Not every team carries three quarterbacks, but apparently the Giants could lean that way with Webb's performance.

  Giants | Davis Webb likely to Giants    Mon Feb 7, 11:49 AM

Free-agent QB Davis Webb (Bills) is expected to sign with the New York Giants, according to sources.

Footballguys view: Webb has been with the Giants before. In fact, Webb was a third-round pick of the Giants back in 2017 but was only with them for one season. He's been a developmental quarterback in each one of his stops (Giants, Jets, Bills) and now gets a shot with the Giants again. He's well versed in new Giants head coach Brian Daboll's system from his three years under Daboll (as his OC) with the Bills.

Footballguys view: Gentry was a favorite target of QB Josh Allen in college at the University of Wyoming. He's a try-hard slot receiver who has bounced around the league. Let's see if working with Allen again can help him stick on a roster.

  Bills | Davis Webb signs with Bills    Mon Sep 2, 10:05 AM

Free-agent QB Davis Webb (Jets) signed with the Buffalo Bills practice squad Monday, Sept. 2.

Footballguys view: Webb was a third-round pick of the Giants in the 2017 NFL draft. He's bounced around to a couple of different teams in a short amount of time. Now, he's trying to stick with the Bills as a developmental prospect. Webb is a tall pocket passer but has struggled with consistency and decision making in his brief pro appearances.

  Jets | Davis Webb ascends up depth chart    Wed Jul 10, 01:13 PM

New York Jets QB Davis Webb usurped QB Trevor Siemian as the primary backup on the depth chart in the latter stages of organized team activities.

Footballguys view: Siemian has always been 'just a guy' (sorry Broncos fans) but this is a bad sign. The veteran moved on from backing up Kirk Cousins with the Vikings to be a veteran backup for Sam Darnold in 2019. Who knows if the Jets will want to keep Siemian as a No. 3 quarterback if Webb beats him out for the backup job.

  Giants | Davis Webb let go    Sun Sep 2, 03:19 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb was waived Sunday, Sept. 2.

  Giants | NYG unlikely to keep four quarterbacks    Sun Sep 2, 11:17 AM

The New York Giants currently have four quarterbacks on their 53-man roster but are not expected to enter Week 1 with more than three players at that position, according to a source. QBs Davis Webb, Kyle Lauletta and Alex Tanney are in competition to back up Eli Manning but Tom Rock of Newsday believes that Webb is the most likely candidate to be traded or released because he was brought in by a previous regime.

New York Giants QB Davis Webb completed 14 of his 20 passes for 140 yards and a touchdown in a 30-17 preseason win over the Detroit Lions Friday, Aug. 17.

Footballguys view: Webb is a tall pocket passer, and he reminded some in the scouting community of Brock Osweiler when he came out of Cal last year. He's competing with rookie Kyle Lauletta to be the primary backup behind Eli Manning in 2018.

  Giants | Davis Webb clear favorite for No. 2 QB job    Mon Jun 18, 12:07 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb appears to be the clear favorite for the No. 2 quarterback job entering training camp, in the opinion of NJ.com's Ryan Dunleavy.

Footballguys view: Webb has the prototypical size scouts look for in an NFL quarterback. Measuring in at 6'5" 229 pounds, Webb scans the field well to find the open receiver. Accuracy problems and decision making on outside or deep throws plagued his game in college at Cal. We'll see if Webb can win the primary backup job to Eli Manning as his only competition is rookie fourth-round pick Kyle Lauletta.

  Giants | Davis Webb impressed during spring practices    Fri Jun 15, 03:27 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb 'easily has the best arm of the bunch' and has 'the look of a player who could potentially develop into a franchise quarterback,' according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan.

Footballguys view: Webb has been working hard to prepare himself for the 2018 season. He was selected in the third round of the 2017 NFL draft by the old regime with the Giants. Webb will have to impress the new regime to stick around as a developmental quarterback behind Eli Manning. He's competing with rookie Kyle Lauletta to be the primary backup in 2018.

  Giants | Davis Webb has early edge for No. 2 QB job    Thu May 10, 04:12 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb is considered the early leader for the No. 2 quarterback job but will have to compete with QB Kyle Lauletta during training camp.

Footballguys view: As expected. There was a lot of noise in New York (or northern New Jersey where the team resides, if we want to be exact) that the new staff and front office loved Webb. While that cooled post-draft and might have just been a way to be direct that, no, they weren't drafting a replacement for Eli Manning at No. 2, we still think they are happy with Webb's progress, and Lauletta is incredibly raw.

  Giants | Davis Webb hoping to impress in minicamp    Sun Apr 22, 11:26 AM

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur and general manager Dave Gettleman will get to see QB Davis Webb work out for the first time at the team's minicamp starting Tuesday, April 24.

Footballguys view: The Giants could add someone like Sam Darnold (USC) with the No.2 overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft. Webb has the prototypical build for the QB position, but there's a lot of Brock Osweiler (Dolphins) to his game. We feel he's a backup caliber player in this league.

  Giants | Davis Webb not in the plans    Sun Jan 28, 09:39 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb is currently 'an afterthought' to the new front office team, according to Ralph Vacchiano of SNY.

Footballguys view: Most quarterbacks that fall to the third round or later are afterthoughts in the their team's long term plans. Webb could still develop into a quality backup and be a longshot to surprise if he ever is pressed into duty.

  Giants | Davis Webb to be backup QB    Wed Dec 27, 08:54 PM

New York Giants QB Davis Webb will serve as the No. 2 quarterback against the Washington Redskins in Week 17, according to interim head coach Steve Spagnuolo.

Footballguys view: Eli Manning gets the start in Week 17 in what could be his final game for the Giants. Webb was a third-round pick in the 2017 NFL draft and he's got the prototypical size/look of a pro quarterback. Too bad he's robotic with his reads and a knockoff version of Brock Osweiler when he goes to scramble. Webb is a developmental prospect who could work into a decent backup.
