"We normally reserve 'Taking the Elle' for Fridays, but Giants quarterback Daniel Jones just did something so inexplicable that we made an exception. After being benched this week, Jones took to the podium to say goodbye to the franchise and fans but with, like, seven games left in the season," Duncan said in a mocking tone. 

Giants senior V.P. of communications Pat Hanlon took exception to Duncan's segment, while also taking a shot at ESPN in a post on X on Thursday night.  

The Giants agreed to release Jones on Friday, and during a rant bashing the Giants on "First Take," Stephen A Smith said the team had reached out to ESPN to complain about Duncan's segment. 

Duncan took to X on Saturday morning to clap back at some of the fans upset about her segment. 

"It started flurrying this morning after a surprising amount of snow on my drive yesterday. I guess you could say I can't seem to escape all these snowflakes.."

One X user responded to her tweet saying, "Doubling down on being classless suits you. Not a Giants fan but if this is where 'sports media' has fallen then you are perfect for the job."

Another X user piled on saying, "Enjoy your 15 mins of relevance before going back to obscurity by Sunday you hack."

Jones can sign with a team as early as Tuesday next week, once he clears waivers on Monday.
