Jaxson Dart, Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels are all hurt - here's what it means for their fantasy football weapons

Yahoo Sports sports

Key Points:

  • Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 2 of 2026, casting doubt on the team's offensive outlook and his status as the unquestioned starter in 2027. Backup Jameis Winston's performance has been underwhelming, raising concerns about the Giants' offense moving forward.
  • Wide receiver Malik Nabers is dealing with lingering knee and shoulder issues, limiting his effectiveness and potentially impacting his availability, which is significant given the steep drop-off after him at the WR2 position for the Giants.
  • Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow for the second consecutive season and will miss multiple weeks; backup Marcus Mariota, a capable veteran, will start in his place, but the offensive line and scheme issues persist.
  • Commanders wide receiver Stefon Diggs is emerging as the primary receiving threat with Daniels sidelined, while Terry McLaurin's volume and upside are limited due to competition and tough defensive matchups.
  • Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is expected to miss at least Week 3 due to injury, with backup Tyson Bagent also in concussion protocol, potentially forcing veteran Case Keenum to start; this raises concerns about the Bears' passing game and limits the fantasy outlook for their young receivers in the short term.
