FANS have realized that New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has ditched a facial feature – and they believe his decision helped his squad win the first game of the year.
The Giants beat the Cleveland Browns in Week 3 after dating rumors spread between Jones and FanDuel TV host Kay Adams.

During training camp, Adams interviewed Jones, who was donning a new beard.
And the former Good Morning Football host appeared to fumble her words while speaking with Jones.
That caused fans to believe that Adams and Jones were a couple.
The 37-year-old even talked about the dating rumors on her FanDuel TV show earlier this month, calling Jones her “boy” while laughing at the topic.
The Giants signal-caller Jones did tell Adams in the summer that he wouldn’t keep the beard for long.
However, he sported the facial hair during New York’s first two games in the season.
Those two contests saw the Giants lose.
Luckily for Big Blue fans, Jones was seen with a shaved face while speaking to reporters on September 19 – days before the team’s Week 3 contest with the Browns.
New York would claim this first victory of the season, beating Cleveland 21-15 on the road.
Jones played a big role, tallying 236 passing yards, two touchdowns, and zero touchdowns.
Fans believed that the 27-year-old losing his “cursed” beard led to the team’s first win of the year.
The then-bearded Jones still managed to post 178 passing yards, two touchdowns, and zero touchdowns the week prior.
As for his relationship status, the 2019 first-round pick is not dating Adams.
For the last few years, Jones has been linked to Ella Bonfede, who also went to the same college, Duke, as the six-year player.

Adams even addressed the dating rumors on The 25/10 Show, saying that she and Jones are not a couple.
“I’m not dating Daniel Jones — breaking, breaking news — I’ve met him all of two times, wish him the best, I’m pretty sure he has a girlfriend,” she told the show’s hosts, NFL icons LeSean McCoy and DeSean Jackson.
Adams’ relationship status is not known to the public.
She hosts Up & Adams each weekday from 11 am Eastern to noon.
Adams has been the host of the program since 2022.
