John Mara gave final approval on drafting Daniel Jones in the spring, has been impressed by the rookie quarterback in practices this summer and was excited by his preseason debut last week.

“So far, so good,” the Giants co-owner said on Tuesday. “He’s everything we thought he’d be. He’s been terrific on the practice field and did a good job the other night.”

Come September, though, he doesn’t want to see him anymore.
