49ers vs. Giants Key Player to Watch

Jaxson Dart, Quarterback, New York Giants

The hits kept coming for the Giants offense last week without breakout running back Cam Skattebo going down with an ankle injury. He joins top wideout Malik Nabers on the shelf, taking away another weapon for rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart.

Dart saw his completion percentage come down in the last two weeks on the road as he went 15 of 33 in Denver and 14 of 24 in Philadelphia. However, he made those 14 completions against the Broncos count as he racked up 283 yards and three touchdown passes in what should have been a victory. He also ran for a touchdown in the last three games, giving him four on the season.

Dart looks like he can be the future for the Giants, and he’ll be in the spotlight to see how he reacts as teams continue to build their book on how to defend him, especially with New York missing a few offensive pieces.

49ers vs. Giants Prediction and Pick

Dart has been a dual threat under center for the Giants this season, with those aforementioned four rushing touchdowns, including a three-game streak. With Skattebo having a long recovery ahead of him, Dart should continue to use his legs for New York.

We’re getting Dart to score a touchdown at +170. The 49ers haven’t allowed a quarterback rushing touchdown yet this season, but C.J. Stroud ran for 30 yards on seven attempts last week, and Kyler Murray had 37 yards on six carries back in Week 3.

I’ll count on Dart to find the end zone for a shorthanded Giants offense.

Pick: Jaxson Dart Anytime Touchdown (+170)
