ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reports “One offensive player said he didn’t expect designed runs” for Jaxson Dart in Week 13 against the Patriots.

01 December 2025

Dart has taken a number of hard hits this year and landed himself in concussion protocol after going down in Week 10 against the Bears. The rookie signal-caller has totaled 57 carries this season, with 36 of those attempts coming on designed runs. Dart’s rushing upside has been an integral part of his fantasy value, as the rookie has finished in the top-12 in four of his last five starts while finding the end zone six times over that span. Any cutback in designed runs could put a dent in his weekly fantasy ceiling, but the Giants would be wise to find ways to cut back Dart’s rush attempts until he can better protect himself.
