New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is targeting the Week 10 road game against the Dallas Cowboys for a potential return from the neck injury that has sidelined him three straight games, according to sources. Jones could possibly return for next Sunday's game at Las Vegas against the Raiders, but that scenario is unlikely considering that he still has not been cleared for contact. Delaying Jones' return beyond next week's Raiders game would leave Jones with two more weeks to regain strength in his left arm and get required medical clearance, while the Giants can continue to proceed cautiously. But the road game in Dallas is the realistic goal, provided there are no setbacks with Jones' neck injury.
