The New York Giants faced a tense moment in the fourth quarter when Jaxson Dart left the game after being tackled by two players from the Washington Commanders. Thankfully, Dart was able to return shortly after, leading to discussions about how both he and the team under interim coach Mike Kafka are protecting this vital player.

While attempting to score during a first-and-goal situation, Dart was hit by Javon Kinlaw and Eddie Goldman, who together weigh a hefty 639 pounds. After being hit, Dart quickly headed to the medical tent.

Fortunately, Dart was able to return for a subsequent play. However, he has already sustained several hard hits this season, missing two games earlier due to a concussion. Despite these challenges, Kafka insists that the team will not significantly change their game strategy.

Kafka stated, “We’re not gonna change much in terms of how we play the game. We have to be mindful of his health as we call plays.”

He emphasized Dart’s ability to maneuver as a key asset. “He knows when to protect himself and when to make a play. I trust him to make the right decisions.”

With a dismal record of 2-12, the Giants have three games left this season. Their focus will be on ensuring Dart’s health while continuing their offensive strategies.
