New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart (6) sits on the bench during the second half of the Giants 34-24 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, Sunday, Nov. 2, 2025 in East Rutherford, N.J.Andrew Mills | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com
The Giants will have a huge piece of their offense back when they arrive at Gillette Stadium for Monday Night Football to face the Patriots.
Jaxson Dart has cleared concussion protocol and will be back under center for the latest edition of Boston vs. New York. He was listed as a full participant on Thursday’s injury report. The report was an approximation as neither team actually practices.
Dart missed two games, both losses after suffering a concussion on Nov. 9 against the Bears.
The 2-10 Giants won’t make the playoffs, but are hoping a strong finish will give the rookie quarterback a running start heading into his second season next year, in the same way Drake Maye learned at the end of 2024 to help prepare him for this season.
The Giants are on a six-game losing streak.
Dart has completed 128 of 204 passes for 1,417 yards. He’s thrown 10 touchdowns and has been intercepted three times in nine games. He’s rushed 57 times for 317 yards and seven more touchdowns.
