Jaxson Dart injury update from Giants GM offers hope QB avoided significant injury
New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen provided a brief injury update to ESPN and it gives hope that Jaxson Dart has avoided a catastrophic injury.
The New York Giants' second-year quarterback, Jaxson Dart, suffered a knee injury during the Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Rams. According to sources, Giants General Manager Joe Schoen conveyed to ESPN's Laura Rutledge that he believes Dart is going to be just fine following the incident. Although Dart initially appeared to be in significant pain, he managed to walk off the field under his own power, which provided a hopeful sign.
He was subsequently taken to the locker room and ruled out for the remainder of the game. Internet speculation suggested that a Giants staffer might have stated that Dart's recovery would take four to six weeks, but this has not been confirmed. The Giants' season hangs in the balance, as both the backup quarterback, Jameis Winston, and Dart are crucial to the team's success.
The prognosis for Dart remains uncertain, but the team will eagerly await any update from NFL insiders, with a potential final update expected by Tuesday.
