The 25-year-old quarterback phoned the two-time Super Bowl champion ahead of his first NFL playoff start this weekend.
Daniel Jones is set to make his first start in the NFL playoffs when his Giants travel to Minneapolis to take on the Vikings in this weekend’s wild-card round. Before taking on the most important game of his professional career, the fifth-year quarterback decided to seek advice from one of the franchise greats: Eli Manning. 
Speaking to reporters Friday, Jones said he called Manning late in the week as a part of his preparation for Sunday’s tilt against the Vikings.

The game played a huge role in deciding the playoff matchups.
Multiple NFL executives and coaches complained about the officiating in last week’s game between the Seahawks and Rams and are calling for the league to review its practices for hiring and training referees, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
That game, which had a significant impact on the playoff picture, was called “the worst officiated game of the year” by one source.
Seattle beat Los Angeles in overtime, which eliminated Detroit from the playoffs and put the Seahawks one Packers loss away from the postseason.
