New York comes in losers of its last six games as it continues to adjust following the firing of former coach Brian Daboll. Jaxson Dart is expected to be back as the Giants’ starting quarterback. He missed the past two games with a concussion suffered Nov. 9 at Chicago.

A key matchup on Monday will be the Giants’ rushing attack against the Patriots’ run defense.

New England didn’t allow an opposing running back to gain 50 yards for the first nine games this season on the way to becoming the NFL’s top-ranked run defense. But the Patriots have regressed over the last three games, allowing three straight running backs to eclipse 50 yards. That includes allowing a season-high 107 to Cincinnati’s Chase Brown.

Next up is a New York rushing attack that’s averaging 124.5 yards per game even after losing rookie Cam Skattebo for the season to an ankle injury.
