Daniel Jones

NYGQB • #8

Daniel Jones (knee) said he is “Ready to go for training camp.”

This report comes via ESPN’s Jordan Raanan. Jones, who suffered a torn ACL in November, was not fully cleared for football activities this spring but has not suffered any setbacks in his recovery. According to Raanan, Jones “was throwing and playing without any limitations with 500 kids at his first official football camp,” which is starkly different from an NFL practice but aligns with how Jones feels about his recovery. Raanan reports that Jones isn’t expected to be placed on the PUP list to start camp, which would signal his availability when they open practice on Wednesday. Jones enters a make-or-break season with the Giants after last year’s disastrous performance. Jones signed a four-year, $160 million contract last offseason, only to throw for 909-2-6 in six games. If he can return to his 2022 form, Jones would have some high-end QB2 upside in fantasy, but it’s more likely he will play closer to what he’s shown in four of his five years as a pro.
