Jaxson Dart knee injury evaluation continues with serious possibility he may miss the remainder of the season

The possibility Jaxson Dart may miss the rest of the New York Giants season has not been ruled out, a source confirmed to Outkick on Tuesday, as medical evaluations continue on the New York Giants quarterback's left knee.

Dart, his doctors and the team will determine next steps for addressing the knee injury he suffered Monday night, early in the game, against the Los Angeles Rams.

The source declined to say why Dart could miss the season.

That outcome, however, would become likely if Dart requires surgery for a detached MCL ligament — a procedure that could carry a recovery timeline of four to five months.

GIANTS QUARTERBACK JAXSON DART SUFFERS KNEE INJURY AGAINST RAMS, MCL ISSUE FEARED New York Giants coach John Harbaugh was not ready to go that far on Tuesday during his day-after press conference.

"I'm not sure exactly what news or anything's been stated, but right now, evaluations are ongoing," Harbaugh said.

"We haven't got any final decisions yet.

We've learned a lot more.

"I wouldn't really want to share too much until decisions get made.

That takes more than one person, takes everybody involved.

So when we know, you know, what direction we're gonna have to go or whatever it might be." Harbaugh will meet with Dart (again) after he gets a second opinion on the MRI test he underwent on Tuesday.

Then a decision on what to do next will be made in conjunction with the medical experts and Dart.

"So, I don't want to get out over our skis on that," Harbaugh said.

OutKick first reported on Monday night that Dart had suffered a sprained MCL and would miss time.
