Daniel Jones day to day, could play Sunday

ice that thing until Thursday

So I would expect him to be active on Sunday, even if it is as a backup.

and you can walk with a limp and then must be fine.

Or it could be a high ankle sprain. If it is that , it is obviously a multi-week injury and it would be his 3rd in 4 years and his play has always gone downhill after them because he rushes back.

Hoping it’s a basketball sprain obv

If it was high ankle he wouodnt of been able to go back into that game

this is Daboll's lingo now. Belichick says the same thing. Leo Williams was day to day.

This isnt from Daboll

Is no longer an encouraging phrase to me.

And let Webb start this weekend. Our season is done if Jones is out an extended period of time.

crazy to me that we are all sweating a ankle because we know how bad this staff is at getting back players from injuries. Fields looked like he had a worse twist in the 1st half and came back right away.

Yes. I don’t trust Jones rushing back from injury. Last year it was against the Rams following concussion in Cowboys game. Granted, concussions are a different animal, and he had no business playing. Year before against the Cards is more similar, coming back from hammy. Just not himself without the mobility.

In 2019, Jones missed two games after a high ankle sprain. In 2020, when Jones tried to come back from a high ankle sprain after two weeks, he was basically immobile and was sacked eight times.

He won't see the field in London.

Much less likely he plays....if it's a high ankle sprain

takes away the one factor in his favor, especially when our receivers are not scaring anyone.

Webb gives us the best chance to run the offense and hope our defense can frustrate the Packers.

GB isn't GB from two years ago. Yes, their skill set is better than ours but, their OLine is average and the receivers are young and make a lot of mistakes.

gives us the best chance?

Based on what? One preseason game?

You can't make this shit up. Glennon all over again.

It would also be nice if we could get back a few receivers

then what is he going to provide? Running is basically all the offense he's providing lately.

I found it, Carl.

Go ahead, make your case for Webb.

I'm sure it'll be as riveting as your Peppers criticisms.

after the London game, Giants have 5 games in a row against Ravens, Jaguars, Seahawks, Texans, and Lions.

I'd rather sit Jones this week and have him ready to go for those 5 games, all games that are "winnable."

On the roster, but DJ is the problem?

Why even play a season with the roster destroyed every season with injuries? We could get Digs and he’d blow his knee out in the first quarter.

I suppose we can call him a fast healer, and he's certainly courageous. On the other hand, he (and the team) might be better off taking more time to heal. I'm not sure a hobbled Daniel Jones gives us a better chance against Green Bay than a healthy Davis Webb. And I have few illusions about our chances with Davis Webb.

The absence of a boot after the game does seem to be a positive sign. The boot is pretty much de rigueur for a high ankle sprain. And if he had broken something, we might already have heard about it from the x-ray results.

He’s day to day

Talking to some people in and around #Giants over the last 15 hours … there’s not a lot of initial optimism among them that Daniel Jones will be ready to play next Sunday. We’ll see

I was saying this during the post game. In fact, I'd bring in another QB. Cant have fucking SB taking snaps.

I think the Giants would prefer to run Webb out there, who can still do all that stuff, rather than limit the playbook.

Question is, who is QB2? Taylor is not going to be cleared to play. It's either Jones or someone who was in camp, god help us.

IK You play to win the game, but on the likelihood that AR won’t have 2 bad games in a row, Anyone that should play banged up, even LW, should just take another week off, then come back the 2 games, and get ready for the 2nd half season and divisional competition.

... how central Jones's mobility is to his value, especially with a porous offensive line and dreadful WRs. If he and his receivers were enjoying more success from the pocket, and if the line could block at all, there might be more optimism. As it is, if he can't run, what can he do? (Not a criticism of Jones, really - just an ackowledgment of where the offense is.)

Are you a fucking idiot? Seriously.. Do you even think before you type? If Jones is limited physically, he will be a sitting duck, will probably get hurt or at the very least extend the length of his injury and surely will have turnovers. Webb gives us the best chance because he can at least move, is not injured and knows the offense.

Glennon all over again. My god, know the poster before posting against you douche bag. We need Jones all year and if he can't move it will be a disaster.

JFC on some people here.

You do know Jones is hurt right? That is the whole point of this thread. But, your I am defending Jones charge was clearly misplaced.

Exactly BBB. That was the point I was making above about Webb giving us the best chance this week. Taylor is probably out so didn't bother including him and a DJ's who cannot move is a sitting duck. Webb isn't Jones athletically but he was mobile enough this summer and more accurately, CAN MOVE with two good ankles..

Another week where Ravens fans are wondering why they let Wink go.

BTW, ... Ravens, Seahawks, Texans and Lions are the bottom 4 defenses in terms of yardage allowed. The Giants can do some damage against those teams if we can get somewhat healthy.

Yeah I would think Webb runs the team this week, and they bring in a QB like Barkley and IR Tyrod. You can PS call up Webb. Barkley is basically pure emergency knowing you have a hurt QB already.

that will be tough

We should sign a wishbone type QB that runs well. Heck we dont need a throwing QB anymore. Keep Webb as the "break glass in case of emergency" QB.

God forbid we're dependent on him, for obvious reasons, but he's got the most QB experience of anyone on the team who's not actually a QB. I think just bringing someone off the street isn't a great option. Who was our 4th string QB in preseason? I can't remember.

That would basically be the coaches saying he's worth little as a pocket passer.

As far as player toughness goes I'd expect him to go Sunday. I mean, he went back into the game so it's not that bad. Nothing is wrong with his arm.

Sills may have even more QB experience than Toney.

I kid, I kid.....We do need to sign someone. We are down to a QB and a half(DJ being the half). Webb or DJ gets injured, you NEED someone. TT is NOT going to be back for a while. Concussions are no joke and the league/Giants won't mess with that. So who is a viable pick up? Any other old Daboll/Kafka players floating around?

the only QB on the roster who knew what day it was! It was an emergency. If he's cleared, he will start Sun. other wise he will NOT be active.

Yes on the basketball sprains, a buddy of mine that I played
JUCO hoops with had a real problem with basketball sprains.
Man, the tape jobs he had on his ankles, I was lucky that I didn't have those issues back in the day...

I didn't realize that, but you are right. Both were HS QBs who converted to WR in their freshman years of college.

Yes he went back in, but couldn't really move.
If the Giants were behind in that game, they would have been
screwed, lets see how it heals this week?

Daniel Jones has no value if he can't run.

Or is it the fact they have no WRs and the teams best weapon is Barkley?

Perhaps the best option for this team right now is Barkley and Jones moving around because the WRs cant get open and the best way to move the ball is run?

not everything is about not trusting Jones, no matter how much you say it

Daniel Jones tweaked his ankle...

Why do you keep pushing this mantra on multiple threads. We have no Wrs, and OL that struggles in pass protection, and two good runners tin Barkley and Jones. All this makes more sense as the reasoning, but of course you position the decision to throw a negative light on Jones
