Jaxson Dart to undergo season-ending knee surgery

Adam Schefter

Sep 23 · 12:54 PM EDT

Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart is expected to undergo knee surgery that will end his 2026 season. His ACL is intact, but the injury reportedly includes damage to his meniscus, MCL and PCL, with the meniscus considered the primary issue.

Fantasy Impact:

Winston takes over as the Giants’ starter and immediately becomes a low-end QB2/Superflex option. His aggressive style should preserve enough passing volume to keep Nabers in fantasy lineups, although the offense will likely become more volatile. Likely and New York’s secondary receivers also carry wider weekly ranges of outcomes.

Giants: QB Jaxson Dart evaluations 'ongoing'

Pro Football Talk

Sep 22 · 3:40 PM EDT

Giants head coach John Harbaugh isn’t ready to make any announcements about the extent of quarterback Jaxson Dart’s knee injury.

A report on Tuesday indicated that an MRI showed more damage than doctors initially believed Dart sustained early in Monday night’s loss to the Rams and that he could be out for the rest of the season. Harbaugh spoke to reporters on a videoconference shortly after that report and said that the team is still working to determine next steps with their starter.

“I’m not sure exactly what news or how anything’s been stated,” Harbaugh said, via SNY. “Right now, evaluations are ongoing. We haven’t got any final decisions yet, we’ve learned a lot more. I wouldn’t want to share too much until decisions get made and that takes more than one person.”

Fantasy Impact:

A report just moments ago said Dart is going to miss more time than was originally expected, possibly the entire season. But, there was no update on exactly what Dart's injury is. Whatever the case, we're trying to bring you updates as we see them, so while this maybe pumps the brakes a bit on the latest update, we do know there is at least one more coming from the Giants, themselves. One thing that seems pretty safe to say is Winston is at least going to take over as the starter for the next few weeks. We'll continue to update Dart's timeline, but Dart owners should probably come up with another plan for QB.

UPDATE: Giants QB Jaxson Dart (knee) could be out for season

One day after an apparently serious injury to Bears starting quarterback Caleb Williams ended up being not nearly as bad as it seemed, an injury to Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart has turned out to be far worse than believed.

Via NFL Network, an MRI showed that Dart’s knee injury is worse than expected. He’s now expected to be out an extended period of time, and possibly for the rest of the season.

Fantasy Impact:

It's a terrible update for what looked like was going to be a situation that turned out mostly positive. There were no other details as far as the injury goes other than Dart is expected to be out longer than the original timeline. It means Winston takes over as the team's starting QB. While he struggled in relief, practice reps should help him going forward. We know what we're going to get with Winston, so there is some fantasy value there. He likes to sling it and that comes with some highs and lows. The Giants will likely be looking to add another QB as Jake Haener is on the practice squad.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (shoulder) headed for MRI

New York Post

Sep 22 · 9:38 AM EDT

Malik Nabers is headed for an MRI and Brian Burns is headed for a waiting game.

Nabers popped his own dislocated shoulder back into the socket in the first quarter, and Brian Burns suffered a low-ankle sprain in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, bookending the Giants’ nightmare 28-6 loss to the Rams on Monday that included the loss of quarterback Jaxson Dart to a likely sprained MCL.

“I pulled it back in and started feeling a little bit of strength back,” Nabers said. “We were without Jaxson, and I didn’t want to give the team another loss, so I went back in.”

Fantasy Impact:

Nabers was injured when he crashed to the ground after an incompletion. In his second game back from a 2025 season-ending torn ACL, he finished with one catch for 1 yard and is “knocking dust off to see what he can do with this new knee,” the story went on to say. It obviously wasn't what fantasy owners were hoping for with Nabers in their lineup. It's at least good news Nabers was able to come back in the game, but he wasn't really a factor. Now the hope is there is no more damage to his shoulder as he tries to work his way back from the knee injury as well. It will be hard to sit Nabers if he's ready to go the next three weeks as the schedule gives the Giants the Titans, Cardinals and the Commanders. Winston struggled coming in on MNF, but we also know he's not afraid to sling it, so there is still some fantasy potential for Nabers if he can get back on the field.
