NEW YORK _ Giants head coach Pat Shurmur announced on Friday that "barring anything crazy" rookie quarterback Daniel Jones would be starting on Sunday against Washington.
Shurmur said that Jones had a good week of practice and looks ready to go.
Jones missed the last two weeks with an ankle sprain. Eli Manning started the last two games, going 1-1 with a win last week against the Miami Dolphins.
Jones has two games left in his rookie season and has one important job as the season comes to a close: cut down on the turnovers. Jones has 11 interceptions and 15 fumbles this season.
Shurmur also said that tight end Rhett Ellison has been ruled out for Sunday's game with a concussion.
