The New York Giants will report to training camp in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Tuesday with their first practice scheduled for Wednesday.
Expectations remain that quarterback Daniel Jones, who is returning from a torn ACL, will avoid the physically unable to perform (PUP) list and open camp with no restrictions.
Jones essentially confirmed as much on Sunday while hosting nearly 500 kids at his Flexwork youth camp in Hoboken.
“Feel good, yeah, I’m ready to go,” Jones said, via the New York Post. “Ready to go in training camp. I’m looking forward to Wednesday.”
Asked more directly if he’s fully cleared, Jones responded, “Yeah, should be good to go.”
When Jones does take his position under center, there will be a lot of new faces around him. Gone are Saquon Barkley and Darren Waller, replaced by Devin Singletary and rookie Theo Johnson. There are also two new starting guards and the first true WR1 he’s ever played with in Malik Nabers, the sixth overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
“I’m excited,” Jones said. “We got some new guys coming in and we’ll be a different team than last year, so it’s about finding out who the team is going to be and grow and build chemistry and be on the same page.
“So I’m excited. I think there’s a lot of work to do, but I’m excited where we’re going.”
Jones and the Giants will hit the ground running with six practices over the first seven days of camp.
