What happened: New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart will miss the remainder of the 2026 regular season, head coach John Harbaugh confirmed Thursday. Harbaugh noted the team is holding out hope that Dart can return if they advance to the postseason.

Why it matters: The official timeline forces New York to move forward without the quarterback who requires knee surgery. The franchise will need to rely on their remaining depth to stay competitive in the standings.

What to watch: The Giants will turn to their backup options as they prepare for their upcoming slate of games.
