EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had surgery for a torn ACL in his right knee on Wednesday.
The Giants said Jones had his surgery at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York with team orthopedic surgeon Scott Rodeo performing the procedure.
Jones was hurt in a non-contact injury in the first half against the Las Vegas Raiders on Nov. 5. He initially went down on the final play of the first quarter and was examined in the medical tent. He returned for the first play of the second quarter and again went down without contract.
An MRI the following day disclosed the injury.
Jones signed a four-year, $160 million contract this past spring. He finished the season, hitting 108 of 160 passes for 909 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions.
