Giants’ Jaxson Dart Ruled Out With Concussion Against Bears

The rookie’s rise includes an NFL record rushing‑touchdown streak powering a depleted offense.

Overview

  • Dart exited in the fourth quarter after a hard hit and fumble on a designed run, was evaluated in the blue tent, then taken to the locker room, and was ruled out with a concussion.
  • Before leaving, he completed 19 of 29 passes for 242 yards and added 66 rushing yards with two rushing touchdowns.
  • Russell Wilson replaced him at quarterback and led a drive that resulted in a field goal.
  • Earlier in the game, Dart became the first NFL quarterback to record a rushing touchdown in five consecutive games.
  • The concussion places him in the NFL’s multi‑step return protocol, which carries added scrutiny following earlier fines related to the Giants’ tent procedures.
