Our read

Written Oct 17, from his facts through last season

The injury is the whole decision right now. Dart has been on IR since before week 3 of 2026, so he has missed weeks 3, 4 and 5, and while he sits there the board ranks him below every available quarterback at the position. You cannot start him, and in most leagues that also means you cannot stash him on an active spot. His bye week of 2026 is still ahead too, so even once he is back there is a dead week coming.

Preseason projection252projected PPR points

What makes him worth holding anyway is the 2025 shape. He played 14 of 17 games, cleared 15 points in 10 of them and finished QB13 among 81 qualifying quarterbacks, all on 86 touches that ranked QB4. The part that made him worth where drafters took him was inside the scoring area: 18 red-zone touches and 10 inside the ten, both QB3 among 64, one spot behind Josh Allen and Jalen Hurts. He is 23 and entering his second season, first among NYG quarterbacks on the depth chart, with John Harbaugh and Matt Nagy new to the building this year.

The worry is that the two 2026 starts were a rollercoaster, 26.6 in week 1 of 2026 and then 0.8 in week 2, which leaves him at 13.7 a game when our preseason pace was 18.0. Our full-season number was 252 with 14 games expected, and those games are what he is losing to this IR stint. We would hold him where an IR spot lets us, because the usage case is real, but if a healthier QB12-type option is sitting out there, he has to earn the roster spot back before he earns a start.
