The Giants are "optimistic" about Daniel Jones playing this week vs. Buffalo, per Brian Daboll. He's "moving in the right direction" and doesn't feel poorly after injuring his neck on Sunday.

Jones exited New York's Week 5 loss to the Miami Dolphins in the fourth quarter due to a neck injury. He underwent an X-ray at the stadium and was scheduled for an MRI on Monday.

The injury occurred when Jones was sacked from behind by Andrew Van Ginkel.
