Running and cutting in ACL rehab
Jones (knee) said Wednesday that he's been running and making cuts during his rehab from a torn right ACL, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones went on to say he's "doing everything," and the plan remains for him to be fully cleared for the start of training camp. The veteran quarterback tore his ACL last November and also dealt with neck issues, though Jones said he's over the latter injury. The Giants didn't use a draft pick on a quarterback this offseason, only swapping out veteran backup Tyrod Taylor for Drew Lock in free agency. Jones should get every opportunity to remain the Giants' starter in 2024, despite a dreadful, injury-shortened 2023 campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Reaps benefits from draft night
Jones did not see the Giants draft his potential successor in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft on Thursday night, with the team instead selecting a projected No. 1 receiver in LSU's Malik Nabers, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It was an all-around enjoyable night for the embattled signal-caller, who is in the midst of recovering from the torn ACL that ended his disappointing 2023 season in Week 5. Raanan notes the Giants did have talks about trading up for one of the three top quarterbacks in the draft, but they ultimately stayed put and instead opted to afford Jones a dynamic receiving weapon that should help his chances of bouncing back in 2024.

2019
Jones again dink-and-dunked his way around the field last season, but he finished QB9 in fantasy thanks to top-tier rushing production -- fifth among QBs with 708 rushing yards, third with seven rushing TDs. His accuracy improved, as his on-target rate increased to 76.1 percent with his completion percentage hitting 67.2. But that's mostly because his average target depth slumped to a career-low 6.4 yards -- 31st in the league -- as Jones rarely looked downfield. Just 4.4 percent of his attempts traveled beyond 20 yards, easily the lowest in the league. No surprise, his YPA again lagged, ranking 24th at 6.8 (he’s never broken 7.0). While he doesn't have elite arm strength, Jones' downfield limitations have at least as much to do with a lack of quality wide receivers. The Giants weren't blind to the problem this offseason, but their free-agent ventures netted only Parris Campbell and Jamison Crowder. The big move was a trade for TE Darren Waller, who will be an upgrade even if he doesn’t return to his peak form. Jones has made steady progress in the turnover department, leading the league last season with a 1.1 INT percentage (and only three lost fumbles), and the Giants were confident enough to give him a four-year, $160 million contract this offseason. He now gets a second year working with coach Brian Daboll, who helped shape Josh Allen into a top QB in Buffalo. Still, the rushing production can do only so much for Jones' fantasy value -- he probably needs to stretch the field more to stay in the top 10 of fantasy QBs.
