Jaxson Dart is done for the season with a knee injury, and the New York Giants are already looking for a veteran quarterback. Tom Pelissero of The Ringer reports league sources believe “it’s a matter of when, not if” the Giants add a passer with starting experience. This could happen as soon as Monday.
Schoen’s Immediate Hunt
Jameis Winston is set to start with Dart on the shelf, but Giants general manager Joe Schoen is “working the phones” for insurance. Pelissero specifically named Minnesota Vikings No. 3 quarterback J.J. McCarthy as an “intriguing” option.
The Michigan Connection
Why McCarthy? The Giants scouted him before the 2024 NFL draft. Plus, McCarthy played collegiately at Michigan for Jim Harbaugh, who is the brother of Giants head coach John Harbaugh. This situation will be updated as more information comes out.
