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.

In a somewhat surprising decision on Wednesday, the Giants decided not to tender an exclusive free-agent offer to Fromm, per the New York Post. Fromm is now an unrestricted free agent, and available to sign with any NFL team.

The reason it was surprising to some is because New York’s new head coach and general manager are both from Buffalo Bills, the organization that drafted Fromm out of college. They know Fromm’s skill set very well.

Last season, Fromm played in three games for the Giants – including two starts -- after the season-ending injury to QB1 Daniel Jones. Fromm threw 60 passes, completing 27 with one touchdown and three interceptions. He was sacked six times.
