Key Points:
- Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart is believed to have suffered a sprained MCL in his knee, according to a preliminary exam and negative X-rays; an MRI is scheduled for Tuesday to confirm the diagnosis.
- Coach John Harbaugh indicated that more detailed information will be available after the MRI, suggesting the injury is in the sprain range but not ruling out severity.
- The MCL injury could heal with rest and rehabilitation unless there is a complete tendon tear, which would be more serious.
- If Dart is sidelined, backup quarterback Jameis Winston is expected to continue starting; Winston recently completed 11 of 27 passes for 111 yards and one interception.
- The Giants have upcoming games against the Titans, Cardinals, and Commanders, providing opportunities to secure wins even if Dart remains out.
