Dart's knee injury diagnosed

Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart is believed to have suffered a sprained MCL in Sunday's game. X-rays came back negative, but an MRI is scheduled for Tuesday to confirm the extent of the damage.

Coach Harbaugh awaits MRI results

Coach John Harbaugh said the preliminary assessment is in the ballpark but emphasized they'll have a clearer picture after Tuesday's MRI. He promised more information once the results come in.

“We'll know more tomorrow. That's in the neighborhood of it, I would say.”

MCL can heal with rest

A sprained MCL typically responds well to rest and rehabilitation. However, if the tendon is completely torn, the recovery timeline and severity would be much worse.

Winston steps in as backup

If Dart misses time, Jameis Winston will take over at quarterback. On Monday night, Winston completed 11 of 27 passes for 111 yards and one interception.

Giants' schedule ahead

New York hosts the Titans on Sunday, followed by games against the Cardinals and a trip to the Commanders. The Giants could still win games even if Dart is sidelined.
