The Giants are giving Daniel Jones every opportunity to prove he can play on Sunday, including a test drive of his injured right hamstring during Thursday’s practice in which he spent time on the sideline doing some throwing and light running under the close observation of the medical staff and Joe Judge.

Unlike Sunday, when he first injured it in the game against the Bengals and tried to hobble through it, Jones seemed less hampered by the hamstring and was able to push off that back leg.
