Giants Quarterback Jaxson Dart Leaves Game With Knee Injury After Hit
Dart was injured in the first quarter during a collision with Rams defenders and did not return.
New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart sustained a knee injury in the first quarter of Monday night's game against the Los Angeles Rams and left the field. The injury occurred less than four minutes into the game when Dart was hit by Rams defenders Byron Young and Josiah Stewart while attempting to throw a pass.
Dart was seen grabbing his left knee in visible pain on the turf. Players from both teams knelt around him as he remained down. He then hobbled off the field and entered the medical tent. Following the play, which resulted in a punt, Jameis Winston replaced Dart as the Giants' quarterback for the subsequent possession.
As Winston took the field, Dart limped toward the locker room, with a cart following him. The Giants listed Dart as questionable to return following the incident. The exact severity of his injury was not immediately clear, but his departure from the game raised concerns for the Giants' offense.
