Source: The Giants are naming Jameis Winston their starting quarterback for Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers

Related Players: Jaxson Dart, Russell Wilson

With Brian Daboll out the door, it looks as though the team will take it easy on Dart to give him a chance to rest up from his apparent Week 10 concussion. Winston is always intriguing for fantasy purposes, but he doesn't have much to throw to. Consider him a QB2 with nominal SuperFlex value.

In all likelihood, the quarterback capable of breathing life into the Bengals’ season isn’t on the roster.

Current backup Brett Rypien and practice squad quarterbacks Sean Clifford and Mike White are not in consideration to replace Browning this weekend against the Packers.

Any options left open to, theoretically, replace Jake Browning in Green Bay would have to come from outside the building.

Reports Tuesday say the team has released White, which could be an indication a new face is on the way in. Three of the bigger names to be stop-gaps until Joe Burrow returns are Cousins, Wilson and Winston, but it remains to be seen if the Bengals pull the trigger and make a deal. The Bengals are hoping to stay in the hunt until Burrow returns and the talent is still there on offense. It also looks like Browning has another chance this week to keep his starting spot.

Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart remains on the team’s injury report heading into a Thursday game against the Eagles.

Dart was a full participant all of last week, but he’s listed as limited on Monday’s report. It is just an estimation of Dart’s participation level because the team did not actually hold a practice.

Dart was 26-of-40 for 202 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in Sunday’s 26-14 loss to the Saints. Dart also ran seven times for 55 yards and lost a fumble in the game, the story said. Slayton was listed as a non-participant due to a hamstring and Tracy (shoulder) was also limited, the story said.

Brian Daboll confirmed the team intends to start Jaxson Dart the rest of the season; Russell Wilson will back him up.

Dart figures to land somewhere in the QB2 range, but there is some rushing upside here, as he accrued 1,500 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns in 2.5 seasons with Ole Miss. His pass-catching corps is pretty thin, but any time Malik Nabers is on the field, he'll be provided with a legitimate WR1. We'll see how things shape out before making him a streaming priority, but it's definitely not out of the question.

Every step along the way Jaxson Dart has shown the Giants he can handle it. Sunday is a big test against the Chargers’ defense but they’re ready to turn it over to him. Brian Daboll informed Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart just now of the change. Away they go with the Dart era.

Things escalated quickly since Monday with some who follow the team thinking the Giants may have to wait until November to make the switch, mostly because the Giants face a tough stretch of games ahead. And that starts this week against the Chargers. The Giants do get the Saints, but will also face the Eagles twice and the Broncos as well. Dart put up numbers in the preseason and how he and his fantasy owners will see if it translates to the regular season. Dart is likely owned in most formats, especially two-QB and superflex, but he's probably still worth a pickup in one-QB leagues as well, especially for his rushing ability.

Brian Daboll stopped short of announcing a quarterback change Monday, but he also notably would not rule out replacing Russell Wilson with prized rookie Jaxson Dart this week against the Chargers.

Daboll’s series of non-committal answers open up an intriguing week for the Giants, who are off to an ugly 0-3 start following Sunday night’s 22-9 loss to the Chiefs.

“We are evaluating everything right now,” Daboll said Monday on a Zoom call. “We’re working through all personnel decisions and we’ll do that over the next few days.

“We’re doing what we normally do…We’re going through the tape and I’d say we’re evaluating everything.”

The story feels Daboll’s answers were interesting in that he committed to Wilson when asked similar questions one day after a Week 1 loss to the Commanders. We broke it down earlier today that the Giants schedule doesn't really ease up until November, so some who follow the team felt that was a better timeframe to make a QB change. However, that seems pretty late in the game, and with the team off to an 0-3 start, a change seems likely to come before that, especially if the offensive struggles continue.

In the midst of a listless offensive performance in their home opener Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, fans began calling for rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart in favor of starter Russell Wilson who just posted 450 passing yards the week prior.

“We want Dart,” fans began chanting as Wilson attempted to force the ball to star receiver Malik Nabers in the back corner of the end zone with 49 seconds left in the first half.

Dart played sparingly in the Giants’ 22-9 loss to the Chiefs on “Sunday Night Football,” entering for three snaps, and has yet to throw his first pass in the NFL.

The story said the Giants have a nightmare schedule upcoming, making it even more tricky to decide when Dart will play. The Giants host the Chargers in Week 4 before the Saints in Week 5. They then face the Eagles on a Thursday Night in Week 6 at home, before going to Denver in Week 7 and the Eagles again on the road in Week 8. The story went on to say some had speculated Dart could start against the Saints, although the rest of that schedule is so difficult that they might have to wait until after the Packers game on Nov. 16 where their schedule begins to lighten up.

Daboll confirmed that Russell Wilson will start Sunday against the Cowboys.

Earlier we reported that Daboll wouldn't commit to Wilson after Week 1's loss to the Commanders, but the Giants boss ultimately decides to give Wilson another shot. The Cowboys actually did a pretty good job of holding the Eagles passing game down last week in the opener. It was Jalen Hurts' legs who helped the Eagles' cause. But Dallas did a pretty good job of shutting the Birds offense as a whole in the second half, so the outlook for Wilson in Week 2 doesn't appear to be great on the surface. It really seems like it's just a matter of time before the switch to Dart happens, and Wilson is a risky fantasy start as a result.

Brian Daboll sounded a lot less sure of his answer on that one. The coach was given multiple opportunities to commit to Russell Wilson as the starter for Week 2 and repeatedly declined to do so.

“We’re going to get home and look at our game,” Daboll said when first asked about starting Dart in Week 2. “Collectively, we all have to do better.”

The countdown to Dart is officially on. The Giants said before the game there was a package of plays for Dart, but he never got into the game in Week 1. As the story said, the Giants offense was anemic, producing just six points and 231 yards of offense with Wilson at the helm. The story stressed there were multiple chances for Daboll to commit to Wilson for Week 2, but he never took the bait. We all kind of speculated Wilson would have a short leash, but the switch to Dart may be happening sooner than later based on this story. Dart is likely not a free agent in dynasty and superflex leagues, but even in one QB redraft leagues, Dart is worth considering as a QB2 stash as long as you have a roster spot.

Giants dropped their unofficial depth chart a few moments ago. Jaxson Dart is listed as QB2, Jameis Winston QB3.

Dart is waiting in the wings for Wilson to struggle, which, will likely happen at some point this season. Dart is worth stashing especially in deeper leagues, and even more especially after an impressive preseason. It's worth noting teams will often make a QB change over a team's bye week, but the Giants bye doesn't come until Week 14, which is very late in the game. We'll see how short Wilson's leash will be.
