Giants’ Daniel Jones doing the extra work early on

Practice was over, but not for Daniel Jones. He remained on the field late Saturday afternoon, going over routes and throwing passes to receivers Flynn Nagel and Darius Slayton and tight end Ellis Alexander.

“That’s pretty standard for quarterbacks,’’ coach Pat Shurmur said after the rookie minicamp practice. “This is the way Daniel operates. I can see during practice if a route doesn’t get completed he’s kind of clicking it off in his brain, ‘OK, I’m going to get that later.’ Really good quarterbacks are perfectionists.’’

Jones had some good and less-good moments in his second practice.
