Giants QB Jaxson Dart hurt, WR Malik Nabers returns vs. Rams on Monday Night Football
It’s not what you want.
Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart hobbled off the field in the first quarter of Monday night’s game at the Rams with a knee injury. He is questionable to return. As is wide receiver Malik Nabers, who exited the game with a right shoulder injury after going up for a pass.
Nabers has since returned. But Dart has not.
Dart was hit by a pair of Rams defenders on a third-down pass that was dropped by tight end Theo Johnson. Dart was down on the field holding his knee before he was able to head to the sideline under his own power.
Backup Jameis Winston is now in the game.
