""I'm ready. I've been waiting for it," Dart said after practice on Friday. "Obviously these primetime games are the ones you have circled on your calendar. I'm excited to go out there, compete at a high level and do everything in my power to rally these guys to put our team in the best situation when the clock hits zero that we're going to come out with a win.""
"The first-round pick didn't clear the concussion protocol. Now, he returns knowing there must be more prudence about the hits he takes. Dart is taking almost 10 hits per game. Even though Dart thought he did better in the game in which he sustained a concussion Nov. 9 in Chicago, it was still the fourth time in eight games dating back to the preseason that he needed to be evaluated for a concussion. That equals a lot of time being off the field."
"Jaxson Dart is unequivocally back as the starting quarterback for the New York Giants. And he will be taking all the first-team reps this week in preparation for the New England Patriots on "Monday Night Football," interim coach Mike Kafka said on Friday. The Giants announced Dart officially cleared concussion protocol on Thursday. He had missed the previous two games with Jameis Winston starting in his place."
Jaxson Dart cleared concussion protocol and returns as the New York Giants' starting quarterback, taking all first-team reps this week for Monday Night Football. He missed the previous two games, during which Jameis Winston started. New York is 2-10 with a six-game losing streak while New England is 10-2 with a nine-game winning streak. The Giants will attempt to end a franchise-record 12-game road losing streak with their rookie quarterback back behind center. Dart has faced multiple concussion evaluations — four times in eight games dating to the preseason — and is taking nearly 10 hits per game. He intends to be more available and more prudent about hits going forward.
