For some reason, the New York Giants are set on getting rookie quarterback Daniel Jones as much game time as possible this year – even if getting him that experience in regular season games involves throwing him back into the fire so to speak. Jones missed the game against the Eagles due to picking up an ankle injury which put him in a walking boot, but for some reason, with three games left this season, the coaching staff still wants to bring Jones back this year rather than resting him until next season.
According to Pat Shurmur, Jones will be back as soon as he’s ready to play, and won’t be held out as a precaution because of the late season injury.
