The Arizona Cardinals will face the San Francisco 49ers this weekend, but there is news about their Week 4 opponent, the New York Giants. Their game against the Giants potentially got easier because starting quarterback Jaxson Dart will not play.
He suffered a knee injury in the Giants’ 28-6 loss to the LA Rams on Monday night and needs surgery. He will miss the rest of the regular season.

That means Jameis Winston will get the start at quarterback.
When the schedule came out in May, the Cardinals were seven-point underdogs in the game. When odds and lines come out after Sunday’s games, that will likely have changed.
After entering the game on Monday, Winston passed for 111 yards and an interception. But Winston has had big games in the past, so we will see what is in store for the Cardinals after they play the 49ers this weekend.
