Jaxson Dart injury may sideline him for four to six weeks
Summary

Jaxson Dart suffered a lower-leg injury during the first quarter of the New York Giants' game against the Los Angeles Rams on September 21, 2026. The injury was the result of a hit by two defenders. Dart walked off the field under his own power but was later taken for X-rays. Internet users claim to have seen footage of a Giants staff member indicating Dart could be out for four to six weeks. Renowned sports doctor David J. Chao suggested the injury could be an MCL sprain, which generally aligns with that recovery timeline. An official update from the Giants is still pending.
