The Giants were on the field Monday for their first organized team activity practice of the spring, and right there running the offense was Daniel Jones.
Jones participated in seven-on-seven drills, a sign that his recovery from a torn right ACL is on schedule.
General manager Joe Schoen said earlier this offseason that the plan was for Jones to be able to take part in more than individual drills once the Giants entered Phase Three of the voluntary offseason workout program.
Jones underwent reconstructive surgery on Nov. 22 and the feeling was he would be ready for the start of training camp this summer, as long as he did not experience any setbacks.
Schoen has also said that if Jones is healthy, the expectation is he will be the starting quarterback Week 1. Drew Lock was signed to serve as Jones’ backup, and Tommy DeVito also returns from last season.

The preferred path to follow remains in place: Select a quarterback with the No. 3 pick in the draft. That is what the Giants hope will happen. When it comes to identifying and securing a franchise-saving player, though, hope is not a good thing, maybe the worst of things — with apologies to Andy Dufresne.
