Jaxson Dart’s ‘Good-Luck’ Necklace Breaks During Giants’ 16-13 Loss to Vikings

The rookie had worn his sister’s diamond heart chain in every game this season.

Overview

  • The chain snapped late in the third quarter, and Dart tossed the broken necklace to the sideline, where it stayed for the rest of the game.
  • The Giants fell 16-13 to Minnesota, extending their losing streak to nine games and dropping their record to 2-13.
  • Dart struggled in the defeat, finishing with fewer than 50 passing yards and one interception, while New York’s lone touchdown came on a Tyler Nubin fumble return.
  • On the FOX broadcast, analyst Jonathan Vilma remarked that losing the chain was a bad sign, a moment widely circulated after the game.
  • Dart has said the heart-shaped necklace belongs to his sister and that he considers it a good-luck charm; no update has been reported on repairs as the Giants prepare to face the Raiders on Dec. 28.
