Daniel Jones took the first rep of passing drills with the Giants receivers in Thursday’s practice, just like a starting quarterback normally does.
Then, as if to underline his apparent return to that role, he bumped backup quarterback Mike Glennon out of the way so he could take the second rep as well.
Jones still is not cleared to play on Sunday and remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol, but he has progressed rapidly through the first four steps of the five-step process.
