Daniel Jones wants a Giants preseason test after ACL recovery
NY Post
Daniel Jones is ready to put his surgically repaired ACL through a final test if the Giants want.
After the first of what will be two joint practices against the Lions, Jones was asked if he would like to play in Thursday’s preseason opener as a way to test his knee against a live pass rush.
Head coach Brian Daboll deferred the decision until later in the week.
“Yeah, I’d like to play,” Jones said. “At the end of the day, that’s coach’s decision and I’ll do whatever Dabes’ thinks.”
Jones played just one possession in the preseason last year, when there were no injury questions.
“I think we try to make practice as game-like as possible and get real game-speed reps in practice to make sure you’re ready to go,” Jones said. “Regardless of what Dabes decides this coming game, I’ll be ready to go when given the chance.”

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
