Daniel Jones in a boot + has moderate high ankle sprain, per Pat Shurmur. He couldn’t play if Giants had game today. Shurmur compared it to what Saquon Barkley had, slightly less severe. Barkley missed three games. So get ready for the return of Eli Manning on Monday vs Eagles.

Daniel Jones is in a boot.
Has a moderate high ankle sprain.
Won’t be ready to play Monday in Philly.
It will be Eli Manning as the starting quarterback, once again.
Perhaps for the remainder of the season.

BREAKING: Daniel Jones will very likely miss Monday’s game against Eagles, which means Eli Manning is back as the starting quarterback for the Giants.
Jones’ right ankle is in a protective boot. He won’t practice today and tomorrow and Pat Shurmur says injury similar to Saquon.

Giants did not think Jones’ ankle was imported this badly.
The soreness got worse, he got an MRI and it revealed the high ankle sprain

In a cruel twist to Giants season: Strong chance TE Evan Engram (foot) and WR Golden Tate (concussion) return Monday, giving Giants all their healthy weapons for first time this season. ... Only Jones likes won’t get to work with them.
Just for the entertainment value can you imagine the shit storm of confusion that would descend if they won the remainder of their games with Eli at QB.
Eli will finally beat them and take the Giants out of getting Chase Young.
my thoughts exactly. we are definetly about to screw up our draft position
Let’s assume Jones is done for the year, just for shits and giggles. Eli is going to beat the Eagles twice in the same season? How many times in his career has that actually happened??
in all of this is the fact that Daniel Jones played with a high ankle sprain last Sunday.
Tough son-of-a-bitch.
Eric obviously we aren't MD's and we don't know how serious the DJ injury. Saquon missed 3 games with a mild sprain. But even if it is mild, even more mild than Saquon is there any reason to trot DJ out quickly? It seems to me its almost like setting up the perfect scenario where the team can give Eli one more home game start 2 weeks from now. Is that too far fetched?
This actually has me excited to see the game. It will suck if we lose and he drops below .500 but now we can all soak it in that this very well is Eli's last time playing in Big Blue.
We are very lucky and fortunate in that regard. We will know to appreciate this moment more.
It's a win-win. We win, Eli gets a final W. We lose, we keep our draft position.

This year just gets uglier.
A rusty Eli vs a desperate Eagle team?
I’m guessing he’s sacked 5 times and turns it over 3.
NYG lose 35-10
Tough son-of-a-bitch.

Eli's final revenge, saving Shurmer's job!
I dunno, Eric...it might work out ok....
;>)
Get that SH$% out of here! - ( New Window )
Jones returns following weeks and plays well but we still lose, remain in the 2nd draft slot and still fire Shurmur.
Who's with me?

With our luck you know this is happening. Fucking cursed.

JFC.
This year just gets uglier.
I think you were already in for a surprise if you really thought we were considering taking another QB this year. 0.00% chance.
Tough son-of-a-bitch.
+1000
If so, the NYG should just start Tanney and not fuck Eli one last time for the road.

Dude is going to take a pounding after a long layoff. He is old and can't avoid a rush
We might lose out
