Dexter Lawrence supports the Giants quarterback change even though he doesn’t fully understand it,Ryan Dunleavy of The New York Post reports.

Lawrence spent Tuesday volunteering with Campbell’s Chunky at Community Food Bank of New Jersey, putting his energy into helping pack 1,170 cans of soup into boxes rather than trying to unpack the reasoning behind benching Daniel Jones for previous third-stringer Tommy DeVito.

Head coach Brian Daboll called it a “hard decision” during a team meeting Monday, according to Lawrence. The announcement was met with “a little bit of confusion.”

“Because you don’t know their full thoughts behind it,” Lawrence said. “I think we trust the coaches and where they’re going and where they think we can go. That’s what you have to do. You have to be naïve and trust the process. You think about the wrong sh– and then you start playing like sh-t.”

Jones was demoted behind backup Drew Lock to third string, which essentially all but assures that he won’t play again this season, that the $23 million injury guarantee in his contract won’t activate and that he will be released after the season.

“He’s the QB1. To me, the best quarterback on the team,” Lawrence said. “But they see things differently. I guess that’s all that matters.”
