LAS VEGAS — Daniel Jones’ season is over.
A Monday MRI confirmed the Giants quarterback tore the ACL in his right knee, head coach Brian Daboll said.
“The first emotion is devastation,” wide receiver Darius Slayton said.
Daboll said the Giants (2-7) will continue to prepare Tommy DeVito at QB ahead of Sunday’s game at the Dallas Cowboys while they continue to get Matt Barkley “up to speed” on the practice squad.
Daboll continued to say that Jones told the coaches and training staff that he was OK after getting hurt on the final play of the first quarter, so he stayed in and then collapsed. But sometimes, professionals have to protect players from themselves. He was obviously hurt.
It’s not clear if Jones fully tore the ACL on the first play or the second play.
This is a developing story.
