The New York Giants want to give Daniel Jones every opportunity to succeed in 2024.
Jones has not lived up to the four-year contract extension he signed a few years ago.
He could be playing for another team in 2025 if he does not give New York’s brass a reason to keep him around.
Thankfully, his healthy is trending in the right direction before Giants training camp.
Daniel Jones spoke with the media today and gave some encouraging updates on his knee. Jones said that he knee feels “really good” per Dan Salomone of Giants.com on Twitter/X. He is reportedly feeling “sharper” and “cleaner” in his cuts.
“I expect to be ready to go first day of training camp,” Jones added.
Daniel Jones suffered a season-ending ACL tear in his right knee in a Week 9 game against the Raiders last year. Health is starting to become a significant concern for Jones, particularly in his right leg. He has suffered two hamstring injuries and three ankle injuries throughout his career, all on his right leg.
Giants head coach Brian Daboll is no doubt thrilled that Jones is on track with his recovery. Daboll said that Daniel Jones is “right where he needs to be” in his progression. However, he added that Jones will not participate in team drills this week at Giants minicamp.
