Giants quarterback Daniel Jones' return has been shrouded in mystery, but it sure looks he's poised to start against the Packers on Sunday in London.
Jones worked exclusively with the starters. His throws to a depleted wide receiver group were sharp, even with Kenny Golladay and Kadarius Toney both left home and rookie Wan'Dale Robinson ruled out against the Packers. He switched to high top cleats to help protect his ankle Wednesday and seemed without limitation then, only to show even more progress, according to Daboll, in the Giants' final practice this week in New Jersey prior to boarding their overnight flight to England.
"Tough dude. That doesn’t surprise me," Giants co-captain and defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence said of Jones."Makes us want to play for each other more knowing that we are all nicked up a little bit, we all are hurting a little bit, but we’re all fighting for each other and fighting for a win. It pumps you up showing that your brother is fighting for you even though he’s wounded. Just always have his back, and the way you have his back is doing your job and playing well.
Jones ran for 68 yards and scored both of the Giants’ touchdowns against the Bears. He only completed 8 of 13 passes for 71 yards. He has yet to throw for 200 yards this season, but the Giants feature the league's best rushing attack behind Saquon Barkley and Jones.
