David Cutcliffe knows he's got a good one in Daniel Jones but both have room for improvement this season, “He and I communicate well,” Cutcliffe said. “We talked in-depth about this, and we will face that again and have conversations (about going pro), but his head is on his shoulders right. He’s got great priorities and great plans, and right now Daniel is focused on today, and when we come back on Friday, he’ll be focused on Friday. That’s where his head should be.”
