When on the field, Dart looked like he had progressed further along than a second-year man, suggesting accelerated development under the Giants' quarterback coaching staff. He is currently recovering from injury (not weight-bearing, on crutches) but has been around the facility and attending team and quarterback meetings. GM Joe Schoen indicated Dart is staying positive and still believes he could return if the Giants make the playoffs.

Dart suffered MCL, PCL, and meniscus damage to his left knee in Week 2 against the Rams with no ACL damage. GM Joe Schoen said Dart aims to return for the playoffs if the Giants make them, though orthopedic surgeon Dr. Kyle Flik noted that if the PCL required reconstruction—status currently unknown—a playoff return would be unlikely. Dart is not yet weight-bearing and remains on crutches but is attending team and quarterback meetings.

Dart suffered season-ending knee injury in Week 2 against the Rams with damage to MCL, PCL, and meniscus in his left knee; no ACL damage. Head coach John Harbaugh and GM Joe Schoen expressed hope for a playoff return, but orthopedic surgeon Dr. Kyle Flik noted that if the PCL required reconstruction—status currently unknown—a playoff return would be out of the question. Dart remains non-weight-bearing on crutches but is attending team and quarterback meetings.

Dart had a scintillating rookie season in the eyes of Giants fans, thrilled them with a masterful opening week game leading the Giants to a win over Dallas in 2026, and showed great performance in Week 1 of 2027 before a meniscus, MCL, and PCL injury in Game 2 ended his season; his PFF passing grade correlates with QBR at 0.67, and his worst games in PFF's view mostly have higher QBR due to his rushing game contribution (54 rushing yards and rushing TD in his Chargers debut), suggesting his running ability adds value beyond traditional passing metrics.

Jaxson Dart's season ended seven plays into Week 2, forcing the Giants to pivot to Jameis Winston and eventually J.J. McCarthy. Dart was positioned as the young franchise quarterback under John Harbaugh in Year 1, with the Giants' season-opening victory over the Cowboys suggesting they had pieces in place to win now with Dart leading the offense. His injury, packaged with the losses of defensive cornerstones Brian Burns and Tremaine Edmunds, created a death sentence scenario for the team's season.
