Quick Summary

The article discusses how Jameis Winston is unlikely to turn around the Giants' season. Instead, it suggests that the team's defense and an easier upcoming schedule could help them stay competitive. In a recent game against the Titans, the Giants won 12-7 despite not scoring a touchdown, thanks in part to poor weather conditions. Running back Cam Skattebo emphasized the importance of securing victories, noting how last year’s team would have likely lost such a game.

Story summary

The New York Giants face worsening injury issues as star linebacker Brian Burns will miss time due to an ankle injury suffered during their 28-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Jaxson Dart, the team's young quarterback, has been ruled out for the season after suffering knee damage in the same game. The Giants host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday and are expected to start backup QB Jameis Winston, who struggled in his first game back since Dart’s injury. Despite these challenges, rookie kicker Dominic Zvada showed promise with successful field goals against the Rams, potentially boosting a unit looking to make improvements under new coordinator John Harbaugh.
