Jaxson Dart suffered a left knee injury after absorbing a high-low tackle in the first quarter, ending his night with 3-of-5 passing for 20 yards. The second year quarterback exited under his own power before Jameis Winston stepped in. Initial reports suggest Dart suffered an MCL sprain, and while X-Rays were negative, he is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Tuesday and will likely miss multiple weeks.
After the game, Giants beat reporter Connor Hughes said Dart may have to wear a brace on his knee when he returns to the field in 2-4 weeks. Fantasy managers now face a nervous wait-and-see as we stand by for more information regarding Dart’s recovery timeline. Winston will be a must-add in superflex leagues regardless of the precise injury severity.
