Giants' Daniel Jones: Full go for start of camp
Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed Wednesday that Jones (knee) is cleared for full-team drills and will lead the first-team offense at training camp, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Daboll even said Jones is "getting all the reps" with the first-team offense, essentially confirming that the 27-year-old quarterback will be New York's Week 1 starter. However, Daboll didn't shut down the possibility of Jones being benched later in the season to avoid future injury guarantees in his contract, instead noting that any such consideration is a "ways down the road," per Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post. The combination of Jones' rushing ability and an improved receiving corps in New York could make him a surprisingly useful second quarterback in fantasy leagues, but he should probably be dropped down the rankings in formats that put a premium on late-season production. In addition to the risk of a situation like Russell Wilson's in Denver late last in 2024, there's always the possibility Jones is simply benched in favor of Drew Lock for performance-related reasons, not to mention concerns about Jones' rushing production dropping after an ACL tear and lengthy rehab process.

Giants' Daniel Jones: Will be active for training camp
Jones (knee) won't be placed on the PUP list and will be active from the start of training camp next week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Jones said early Tuesday during an appearance on the Simms Complete podcast that he's had no setbacks in his recovery from last November's ACL surgery, and the Giants' decision not to place him on the PUP list essentially confirms that. This news means the QB is unlikely to have any limitations in preparing for the upcoming campaign and should be ready to go as New York's Week 1 starter. Jones will lead a new-look Giants offense that lost Saquon Barkley in free agency and Darren Waller to retirement in the offseason while adding new first-string RB Devin Singletary and exciting rookie Malik Nabers, who is slated to be the team's No. 1 wideout.
