Of course they do.

Of course players know who got paid and make sure to notice if this triggers any changes in the nouveau riche. A teammate returns after cashing in with a fat new contract? There is often something, well, not the same about him.

“They got that money swag,’’ Sterling Shepard said Tuesday, after the Giants completed their first mandatory minicamp practice. “You know when someone hit that lotto. They a little different.’’

This brings to mind two Giants players, both products of the first round of the 2019 draft. Daniel Jones and Dexter Lawrence just got paid. The quarterback led the way with a four-year deal worth $160 million. The defensive tackle checked in at four years and $90 million.

“Dexter got a little money swag,’’ Shepard said.

Jones and his heftier bank account arrived for his fifth offseason with the Giants, and no one can see much of a change in him.

Any money swag for Jones?

“Nah, he’s gonna stay the same,’’ Shepard said, smiling.

“I don’t even think he has swag to even begin,’’ Lawrence said. “He’s just Daniel.’’

It will be quite a challenge for Just Daniel to play up to his new contract. The outcry that he was over-drafted rang out after the Giants made him the No. 6-overall pick in 2019, and the ups and downs as a starting quarterback made the 2022 season one of decision about him — faced with the daunting task of connecting with a new head coach, Brian Daboll, and mastering an entirely new offensive system.

It was easy for Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen to learn to respect Jones as a person, and to appreciate his work ethic and professional comportment.

It was much more difficult for Jones to convince the new brain trust that he should be the starting quarterback in 2023 and beyond. Jones did it by staying healthy and helping the Giants end a 10-season run without a playoff victory.

He joined Matthew Stafford and Dak Prescott in annual average earnings — $40 million per year — to tie for ninth on the list of highest-salaried quarterbacks.

Jones will get pushed out of the top 10 when Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence and Justin Herbert secure new contracts.

With great money comes great pressure, whether Jones wants to acknowledge it or not.

“I don’t know,’’ Jones said. “Some people may see it that way. I think to me, it doesn’t change anything I’m doing, it doesn’t change my routine or how I’m going to go about my work or my business. That’s the same.’’

“No, he’s still one of the first ones in there,’’ Kafka said. “I see him all the time in there early working.’’

It is to the point that the Giants try to get Jones to slow down a bit. This week brings the offseason program to an end, and players will not have to report to training camp until the last week in July. Daboll, once again, will remind his quarterback to put it away for a while.

“It’s hard for him to do,’’ Daboll said. “He’s been in the league long enough. He has a routine over the next month that he’s used to, and I have a lot of trust that he’ll be ready to go.’’

Last week, offensive coordinator Mike Kafka was asked, semi-seriously, if Jones is no longer coming in early now that he got his loot. Kafka’s response was full-serious.

Dexter Lawrence said he has noticed Jones being “a little more vocal’’ this spring. Whether that is a function of the new contract or increased familiarity with the offense is anyone’s guess.

“Still coming in early morning and staying late,’’ Lawrence said. “Daniel’s a grinder.’’

So, no change in Daniel Jones?

“If you know anything about Daniel, I mean, that guy’s the hardest worker no matter what the situation is,’’ Shepard said. “I expect him to have the mentality of, ‘I’m gonna show everybody why I deserve this money.’ ’’

That would be a natural mentality. Jones insists it is not for him.

“I never really felt like I needed to show other people or whoever it is,’’ he said. “I feel like I’m doing it because I want to do it, because I enjoy doing it and trying to be as good as I can be. That doesn’t change, regardless of whatever the contract situation is.

“I’m not trying to prove it to anybody else or anybody outside the building. It’s about showing up and putting in the work every day.’’

With as little money swag as possible.
