What happened: New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh confirmed the team is exploring all avenues to add a quarterback after Jaxson Dart suffered a season-ending knee injury. When asked about a potential trade, Harbaugh stated that all options are open as the team evaluates the market.

Why it matters: The Giants are navigating a thin pool of available veteran talent to salvage the season. Jameis Winston struggled against the Los Angeles Rams in relief, highlighting the need for stability at the position. Harbaugh noted a preference for a veteran presence, which could complicate a potential pursuit of young players like J.J. Mccarthy.

What to watch: Watch for the Giants to monitor veteran backups across the league or explore the free-agent market. The team must weigh the trade cost against signing an available street free agent.
