Jaxson Dart hurt in first drive as Rams rout Giants 28-6
Jaxson Dart's early MCL sprain hampered the Giants as Matthew Stafford led the Rams to 28-6 victory.
The Los Angeles Rams demolished the New York Giants 28-6 on Monday, bouncing back from their 27-7 loss to San Francisco in Melbourne last week. Matthew Stafford threw 327 yards and four touchdowns, and receiver Davante Adams caught 195 yards and two scores.
The Giants' offense never got going after quarterback Jaxson Dart left the game early with an MCL sprain to his left knee. Jameis Winston took over but struggled to move the ball.
Rams coach Sean McVay, who blamed himself for the Australia trip decision, saw his team return to form at home.
