Jaxson Dart ruled out but "going to be OK"

The Giants officially ruled out Jaxson Dart for the second half, but ESPN sideline reporter Laura Rutledge delivered a positive update from General Manager Joe Schoen.

The Giants are still evaluating the injury, with Dart getting an X-ray at SoFi Stadium, but Schoen told Rutledge that Dart is “going to be OK.”

That presumably means Dart did not tear a ligament in his left knee and will return this season.

Coach John Harbaugh did not provide any information to Rutledge about Dart’s injury in a halftime interview.

Dart was hurt on the Giants’ first possession on a third-down play when Rams defenders Josaiah Stewart and Byron Young pressured him. Young hit Dart high, pushing him into Stewart, and, with Dart airborne, his left knee jammed into Stewart’s quad.

Dart remained on the turf with 11:20 left in the first quarter.

He went 3-for-5 for 20 yards before leaving.

Jameis Winston has replaced Dart and is 5-of-13 for 71 yards and an interception.
