Overview
- Dart, whom New Orleans passed on at No. 9 to draft LT Kelvin Banks Jr. before selecting QB Tyler Shough at No. 40, was acquired by the Giants after they traded up to No. 25.
- In his first start, Dart led a 21-18 upset of the previously unbeaten Chargers, going 13-of-20 for 111 yards and a touchdown with 54 rushing yards and a score.
- He is listed with a hamstring injury but practiced fully this week, with observers noting athletic tape on his left leg.
- The Saints enter Week 5 at 0-4, and coach Kellen Moore says he is not making a quarterback change as Spencer Rattler seeks his first NFL win in his 11th start.
- With Nabers out for the season, targets pivot to Wan’Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt and rookie Beaux Collins, while New York’s pass rush (Brian Burns tied for the NFL lead with five sacks) draws a favorable matchup against a banged-up Saints line and with Chase Young ruled out.
