New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones isn't expected to play Sunday against the Washington Commanders due to a neck injury, sources told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Ian Rapoport, and Mike Garafolo.

Tyrod Taylor is slated to make his second straight start in place of the injured Jones.

Jones was initially listed as questionable for the contest, but he has yet to be cleared for contact. The signal-caller suffered his neck injury in Week 5.

The 26-year-old is 1-4 as a starter this year. Jones has thrown more interceptions (six) than touchdowns (two).

Taylor completed 24 passes for 200 yards in last Sunday night's 14-9 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He didn't throw an interception but was also unable to lead the Giants to the end zone.

The Giants sit in last place in the NFC East.
