On paper, Daniel Jones’ first significant workday of 2021 was not all bad. In fact, it was mostly good.

The Giants quarterback was 22-for-37 for 267 yards and a touchdown in Sunday’s opener against the Broncos at MetLife Stadium.

He also ran for a touchdown and was the Giants’ leading rusher with 27 yards – one more than Saquon Barkley had in his return after a 51-week absence.
