Fantasy Impact
Looking at the video, Dart should be fine and it’s just a precaution. But, given his history, it’s better for the team to be safe than sorry.
Jaxson Dart completed 17-of-24 passing attempts for 139 yards and a touchdown while rushing for 20 yards in Monday night's 33-15 loss to the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Impact
The rookie made his return to the lineup on Monday night after missing some time due to a concussion. He didn't make any big mistakes, but he also only threw for 139 yards on the night, which left him with an underwhelming stat line overall. He should bounce back and be more valuable than this for fantasy purposes moving forward, although it's worth monitoring his rushing attempts over the next few games, as the team may be limiting him in that area because of all of the hits that he's been taking.
Giants interim coach Mike Kafka confirmed Jaxson Dart will start in Week 13 against the Patriots.
