Latest
Jameis Winston’s current injury designation is shown in the live status box above, which updates automatically from the official NFL injury report. He took over as the Giants’ starter in late September after Jaxson Dart suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 2.
In relief of Dart in the Week 2 loss to the Rams, Winston went 14-of-32 for 131 yards with an interception and two sacks, per RotoWire. His last significant injury was a torn ACL in 2021 that cost him nine games.
Fantasy Action: Winston is a volatile QB2 and a worthwhile superflex starter while Dart is out; his aggressive style brings both big-yardage games and turnovers.
