What happened: Jameis Winston took over at quarterback with Jaxson Dart sidelined in the medical tent. Dart went down clutching his left knee and walked off under his own power.

Why it matters: Dart opened 2026 as the full-time starter and totaled three passing touchdowns in last week's win. Winston agreed to a two-year, $13M extension earlier this month as the veteran backup.

What to watch: Watch whether Dart re-enters after evaluation in the medical tent.
