Report: Jaxson Dart wanted to return to the game despite knee injury
Jaxson Dart left Monday night's game with a knee injury and did not return, though ProFootballTalk reports he wanted to go back in. He is currently listed as out.
Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart left Monday night's game early with a knee injury, and he didn't return.
Sharp take
Sharp SixHoldWanting to return is not a medical clearance, and it tells you nothing about Sunday. Dart carries a 5.7 VORP and put up 28.9 points in Week 1, which is enough to keep him stashed while this sorts itself out. The Giants are 6.5-point underdogs at Los Angeles in a 47.5-point game, so the garbage-time passing floor survives if he plays. Hold him and start someone healthy this week. If your quarterback room is thin enough that this is a crisis, that was true before Monday.
