Giants activate practice squad QB Webb to back up Jones

LONDON (AP) — The New York Giants elevated quarterback Davis Webb from the practice squad on Saturday to serve as a backup to Daniel Jones against the Green Bay Packers at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Tyrod Taylor has been the second choice but he got a concussion in last Sunday's 20-12 win over the Chicago Bears and was ruled out Friday.

The Giants also activated wide receiver Marcus Johnson and signed safety Tony Jefferson to the 53-man roster.

The 27-year-old Webb has never thrown a pass in an NFL game.
