Giants QB Jaxson Dart Is Done for the Regular Season with a Knee Injury, Coach John Harbaugh Says
Jameis Winston will start Sunday as the Giants seek another quarterback after an MRI showed Dart’s injury is season-ending, Harbaugh said.
- On Monday, September 21, New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart suffered a season-ending left knee injury during the team's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Head coach John Harbaugh confirmed Wednesday that Dart requires surgery, sidelining him for the 2026 season.
- Dart was injured on the first drive of Monday's game against the Rams when his left leg bent awkwardly after being hit by two defenders. While initial X-rays were negative, subsequent MRIs revealed extensive damage to his meniscus, MCL, and posterior cruciate ligaments.
- Veteran Jameis Winston will assume the starting role for Sunday's matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The team is elevating Jake Haener from the practice squad to serve as Winston's backup for Week 3.

- While moving forward with Winston, Harbaugh did not rule out acquiring another veteran quarterback via trade. The Giants face Tennessee, whose coach Robert Saleh said Winston is "capable of putting 500 yards and four touchdowns on you in a heartbeat.
