EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- When New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones felt pain in his right knee on Nov. 5, he knew his season was over. At that point, it was all about turning the page and getting healthy for next season.

After the swelling subsided and he was given the green light by doctors, the Giants' starting quarterback went for surgery for his torn ACL on Thanksgiving.

Jones, 26, could have easily waited until the following week and enjoyed the holiday pain-free with his family. Instead, he opted for surgery on that Thursday morning because, in his mind, every day mattered.
