New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones completed 11-of-18 passes for 138 yards and no touchdowns in the team's 28-10 loss to the Houston Texans. He tossed two interceptions and added 12 rushing yards on one attempt.It was the preseason debut for the Giants' quarterback and first game action since tearing his ACL last November against the Las Vegas Raiders. It was a bit of a mixed bag for Jones as he made a few foolish throws and some good ones on Saturday. The sixth-year veteran hit Darius Slayton for a big gain down to the Houston 1-yard line and made a few nice connections with rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers in this one -- accounting for his highlights. It would have been a bigger day for him, but Nabers barely missed catching what would have been at least a 20-yard gain on the first drive. On a positive note, the Giants' offensive line has improved vastly from 2023. The unit consistently opened holes for Devin Singletary in the run game and did not allow New York's signal-caller to be sacked. The Giants will take on their cross-town rivals -- the New York Jets -- next Saturday. Expect Jones to suit up for one final tune-up before the regular season.
