The New York Giants were back on the practice field on Thursday and, somewhat surprisingly, quarterback Daniel Jones re-joined teammates.
Less than a week after suffering a hamstring injury against the Cincinnati Bengals and one day removed from missing practice entirely, Jones was back on the field and doing some work.
However, Jones still did not participate during the team portion of practice.

“Yeah, so we had positive reports on him yesterday,” head coach Joe Judge told reporters. “Obviously, we have to kind of see a little bit more from him today. The plan is to get him out there with the trainers, move him around a little bit, throw a little bit, see where that progresses to and what that allows him to do later in practice today or maybe what that shows what we can do with him tomorrow.”
Rookie linebacker Cam Brown also sat out of practice with an illness.
The remainder of the team’s official injury report was unchanged from Wednesday.
Did not participate: QB Daniel Jones (hamstring), LB Cam Brown (illness)
Limited participant: DB Nate Ebner (knee), LB David Mayo (knee), WR Sterling Shepard (toe/shoulder) and WR Darius Slayton (shoulder/foot).
Full participant: N/A
