Let’s not put the kid in Canton just yet, OK? OK?

But boy oh boy, did Danny Boy turn those MetLife draft-party jeers to cheers in a hurry.

You saw the poise and you saw the accuracy and you saw the smarts and you saw the deep ball that has been lighting up the summer sky. You saw the swagger in his eyes and for the first time on game day why Dave Gettleman has staked his reputation and legacy on Daniel Jones.

It was merely a glimpse into what Gettleman and Giants fans hope and pray will be Life After Eli Manning, folly to put too much stock into one magical night, still too premature to bang the drums for Pat Shurmur to just give the kid the damn ball already.

“Slow your roll,” was Shurmur’s suggestion to Giants fans.

But that won’t be easy now.

Because this was a glimpse that announced loudly and clearly The Future Might Be Now sooner rather than later.

“I think I’ll just continue to do what my job is, and that’s what I can to prepare myself and to improve as much as I can every day, so I trust the plan and I’m part of this team in trying to make sure we’re in the best position to win games this year,” Jones said.

An answer that the 2004 Manning or the 2019 Manning would have given.

“I think overall I did some good things … missed a couple of things, could have been a little bit better with a couple of things, so I’ll focus on that,” Jones said, “but good just to get out there for the first time.”

Danny Boy took over after a three-and-out Manning series that riled some boobirds, and he was The Mann. Nerves? Butterflies? This was only a preseason game, but it wasn’t North Carolina Central out there.

“More excited, probably,” Jones said.

It was 7:25 p.m., with 7:59 remaining in the first quarter of Giants 31, Jets 22, when Daniel Jones left the sideline and walked to the huddle, and a cheer went up as he did.

Then Daniel Jones put on the kind of show on his first and only drive that Saquon Barkley did as a rookie when his first preseason carry went for 39 yards.

Jones operated out of the shotgun and behind center and he torched the Jets’ second-team secondary at every turn.

He started with a 5-yarder to Cody Latimer and finished by leading Bennie Fowler perfectly in the right corner of the end zone for a 12-yard TD pass against Santos Ramirez.

“Cover 2 look for them, so trying to find that back corner of the end zone, everything’s tight down there, he ran a really good route, and made a nice play,” Jones said.

In between: an 11-yard slant to Golden Tate, then a 31-yarder to Latimer on a crossing route off play-action.

“Good play fake, and the line did a really good job holding up, and he was able to just kinda find a spot in between zones,” Jones said.

And an 8-yard out on the right sideline to Fowler on third-and-8.

Jones: 5-5, 67 yards, 1 TD. First Perfect Game around here since David Cone. Well, close to a Perfect Game.

“Well he didn’t motion the tight end across on the first play,” Shurmur said.

Well excuuuuuuuse him!

Jones smiled as he recalled getting reminded of his miscue during the locker room lightning delay.

“I just missed that … we had it again, I got it right the next time.”

His proud parents watched from the stands.

“Well,” his father, Stephen Jones, told The Post, “his mom said he’d be ready.”

Mama knew best.

“He looked comfortable — certain,” Stephen Jones said. “He was prepared. And, he threw the ball well, I thought.”

If you believe God is a Jets fan — c’mon now, you can’t possibly believe that, can you? — just as Jones was standing outside the huddle getting ready to build on his momentum, ominous dark clouds began rolling in and fans were implored to leave the outdoor seating bowl area immediately because of a severe-weather warning, and the Giants and Jets returned to their locker rooms for 59 minutes.

Only the lightning that accompanied the ensuing downpour was more electric than Jones’ crackling performance.

“He looked pretty good, didn’t he? We sorta knew that when we picked him,” Shurmur said.

Jones has already won over teammates.

“He’s a great one,” Russell Shepard said, “he’s a great one.”

Danny Boy oh boy!
