Giants saw Daniel Jones decisions they ‘can’t afford’ in preseason debut #giants #nfl #nflfootball

Daniel Jones’ first pass should’ve been intercepted, and his first true taste of contact led to a much bigger disaster.

In his first live action since tearing the ACL in his right leg last November, the Giants’ franchise quarterback lived a first-quarter nightmare Saturday as he threw two interceptions in the first 13 minutes, including one that was returned for an easy walk-in touchdown.

The results for Jones, head coach/play-caller Brian Daboll and the rest of the starting offense got slightly better as the first half went on — and not coincidentally after the Texans pulled their defensive starters.

“A little shaky at the start,” Jones said after a 28-10 loss to the Texans. “Knee felt good. It was fun to be out there. It didn’t start perfect, but we got going, and I feel good physically.”
