Daniel Jones Gets ‘Vanilla Vick’ Nickname After Hitting Over 20mph on 49 Yard Run

Not only can Daniel  Jones throw dimes, but he can apparently run faster than a speeding bullet. The New York Giants QB reached a maximum speed of 20.64 mph on his 49 yard run this past weekend. He was tied for the 7th fastest speed ran by an NFL player. 

Not bad for a QB.

Just how athletic is Daniel Jones? Hit 20.64 mph on 49-yard run in first half, per Next Gen Stats. Fastest of career. Jones now has three of top 7 QB speeds recorded this season. Lamar Jackson has other four. No wonder Darius Slayton called his QB “Daniel Jackson” after the game.

After the game Slayton  had this to say about his speedy QB:

Here’s  a new logo for Daniel  Jones below:

Vanilla Vick has a nice ring to it. So does Danny Dimes though. Some people go their entire lifetime without a nickname, let alone two really cool ones.  What a time to  be a Giants fan.

Kind of.
