Jaxson Dart sends late-night message after worrying Giants moment
NY Post
This is likely Jaxson Dart’s “Welcome to the NFL” moment.
On Thursday night during the Giants’ final preseason game against the Patriots, the No. 25 overall pick gave the team a big concussion scare in the first quarter when he was tackled during a 23-yard scramble — and the rookie being pulled from the game for evaluation by medical staff.
He was cleared in concussion protocol and seemingly has vowed to learn his lesson.
“I’ll start sliding more,” the quarterback posted to his Instagram Story late on Thursday — a message that had disappeared from his profile as of Friday morning.
In his first NFL start, Dart seemed to get carried away, thinking he had an open field on fourth down late in the first quarter.
He showed off his speed and quick instincts, but his trip to the medical tent earned him some feedback from coach Brian Daboll, who urged him to slide rather than take unnecessary risks.
