Arya News - Dart suffered the injury during the Giants` opening drive in their Monday night loss to the Rams.
New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart could reportedly be done for the season after sustaining a knee injury during Monday night"s 28-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams .
According to NFL Network"s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo , the MRI results showed that the damage was worse than expected. Dart will be out for an "extended period of time" and the injury could be season-ending.
Giants head coach John Harbaugh is scheduled to meet with reporters on Tuesday to provide further details.
Dart suffered the injury in the first quarter and did not return to the game. X-rays were negative and the second-year signal-caller underwent an MRI on Tuesday after the team returned home from Los Angeles .
During the game"s opening drive, Dart dropped back to pass and jumped to make a throw downfield while under pressure. He was sandwiched between Rams linebackers Josaiah Stewart and Byron Young before falling to the ground holding his left knee.
After being tended to on the field, Dart limped off and was taken for further evaluation. He was initially listed as questionable to return before being ruled out. He returned later without his uniform and watched the remainder of the game from the sideline.
Jameis Winston , who signed a two-year, $13-million extension before Week 1, finished the game going 11-for-27 with 111 passing yards, an interception and taking two sacks.
