What is the story about?

The Jaxson Dart injury on Monday night in the New York Giants 28-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams was devastating, but it may not be as bad as fans initially thought, and that may be thanks to some lip-reading off of the ESPN Monday Night Football broadcast.

Cameras caught someone from the Giants speaking with head coach John Harbaugh after Dart left the game, and lip-readers think he told Harbaugh "four to six weeks." Was he referring to Dart in that scenario? Someone else? We don't know that officially, but it would make sense that he's talking about Dart there.

Will Jaxson Dart miss the rest of the year?

We'll find out soon. But if that video above is an indication, he might miss a chunk of the year, which would be better than the entire year.

Initial reports say he sprained his MCL in his knee.

#Giants QB Jaxson Dart is believed to have suffered a sprained MCL based on the initial exams, sources tell me and @MikeGarafolo.

X-Rays were negative and the MRI is coming Tuesday. Dart is expected to miss some time, though in general, positive news. pic.twitter.com/re7lr0aGXX
