Now in the NFL, Lauletta will have the opportunity to sit behind a Super Bowl Champion in Manning and potentially be the quarterback of the future for the Giants. With weapons like Odell Beckham Jr. and Saquon Barkley, Lauletta will have pieces to work with.
Could Lauletta be the starting quarterback as early as next year? Time will tell, but it's seems obvious Eli Manning's career is coming to a close.
