Does Daniel Jones play Thursday?

[LennG]

If and only if Jones is cleared to play does he see any action Thursday, or in any of the pre season games.
Practicing at camp is one thing but as of now Jones is still the starter, do we risk exposing him to contact just yet?

[T200]

Yes, he'll play at least 2 series, if not a whole quarter.

I would guess not a single snap.  I think given Daboll's previous philosophy in regards to preseason games, Jones' coming off a major injury, and his penchant for getting new injuries frequently all leads me to think the betting odds favor him not dressing.

I think he should play as much as possible. The whole strategy of using him sparingly in the preseason backfired spectacularly last year. I'd rather risk getting him injured and have him as ready as possible than get the version of him we got last year.

That is what I'd like to see.  With one of those being a one play TD pass to Nabers series.

They've already shown they can't cover him and catches anything in his zip code. Looking forward to some highlights in Blue.

You nailed it Jeff.

We've see Daboll change his pre-season approach from last year pretty drastically so far, let's hope he does it in this area as well.

[EDjohnst1981]

If fit and ready to go. He should.

The whole offense needs as much practice as possible.

[katkavage]

He won't play.

[MightyGiants]

Hard to say.  After two very physical and intense practices with the Lions, I suspect the Giants may play little or none of their starters in tomorrow's game.   I know Dan Cambell has already said as much for the Lions.

[Philosophers]

Dabs needs to start thinking about his future and risk DJ so he is more prepared for opening season.

[MrGap92]

If he can play, he should play

He needs reps with the new OL, new skill players, and to shake off some rust

We can't casually go into the season without playing again, it has not worked

DB: Agree for a different reason. This is his last chance with the Giants.

The Giants are all in on Jones, so they should play like they're all in.

If the doctors cleared the knee, then it's time to see what he can do with his pile of weapons, especially against vanilla defenses. No better way to gain a bit of confidence before facing real defenses.

What happened to all the posters who said he won't be ready for week one and was PUP bound and now he is ready for PS week 1.
