Jaxson Dart 2026 Fantasy Football Outlook: Rushing Upside Comes With Passing Risk
New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart enters 2026 as one of the more volatile fantasy quarterbacks after flashing real rushing upside as a rookie. Dart played 14 games and started 12 in 2025, completing 216 of 339 passes for 2,272 yards, 15 touchdowns, and five interceptions. The passing production was uneven, but his legs changed the fantasy profile. Dart rushed 86 times for 487 yards and nine touchdowns, giving him weekly upside that matters more in Superflex and two-QB formats. He became the starter in Week 4 after Russell Wilson was benched and averaged roughly 22.6 fantasy points per start, though the floor was not always stable. Dart also took 35 sacks, missed two games after a Week 10 concussion, and remains a developing passer entering a new offense under HC John Harbaugh and OC Matt Nagy. Malik Nabers' (knee) recovery from a 2025 knee injury is another key variable, even with Darnell Mooney and Isaiah Likely added to the supporting cast. Dart is currently being drafted as the QB9 on Sleeper, while RotoBaller ranks him 104th overall and QB12. Dart's rushing gives him a path to outperform that range, but he is easier to justify in Superflex than as an aggressive single-QB target.
