Charles Wenzelberg/New York Post Dart limped off the field in the first quarter following a hit from both ends by Rams defenders Byron Young and Josiah Stewart in the Giants’ ugly 28-6 loss. Following the hit, he immediately clutched his knee and was in obvious pain.
After undergoing tests, Dart emerged on the sideline in team-issued warmups. He didn’t talk to reporters after the loss.
Jameis Winston struggled mightily in his place, completing only 11-of-27 passes for 111 yards with an interception. The Giants will need him to play much better in Dart’s absence.
