Giants QB Jaxson Dart Cleared for Monday Night Football vs Patriots After Missed Two Games with Concussion. The 22-year-old quarterback, who started the season as a backup before becoming the Giants' starting quarterback in Week 4, is set to face off against the New England Patriots on Monday Night Football.
Dart's return from concussion protocol has been a long time coming, having missed the team's last two games while his status was being evaluated. However, he has now been cleared by medical officials and will take the field alongside teammate Jameis Winston.
The Giants' struggles under Dart's leadership have been well-documented, with a 2-5 record since becoming the starter in Week 4. Russell Wilson, who began the season as the team's QB1 before being benched, is expected to sit out Monday's game.
In contrast, the Patriots are seeking to extend their winning streak to ten games, while the Giants aim to snap their six-game losing skid. The matchup promises to be an exciting one, with two young quarterbacks in Dart and Drake Maye set to go head-to-head.
Monday's game at Gillette Stadium is scheduled to kick off at 8:15 PM Eastern Time.

... two missed games with a concussion isn't exactly what you'd call a speedy recovery, if you ask me 
. And let's be real, the Giants' struggles under his leadership are pretty well-documented - 2-5 record since becoming starter in Week 4? That's not a recipe for success 
.
. Maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised, but I'm not holding my breath 
. One thing for sure, it's gonna be a wild ride at Gillette Stadium Monday night! 
️
, but I'm not sure if that's gonna be enough for him... he's got a tough matchup against the Pats and their defense is looking pretty strong 
. The Giants' offense just hasn't been clicking under him, but you know how it is when you're young and trying to prove yourself - you gotta take some risks 
, but we'll see how he performs in this one. And Russell Wilson not playing? that's just another nail in the coffin for the Giants... they really need a win here to turn their season around 
.
!
what do u guys think about this matchup tho? gonna be super intense! 
the giants have been doing so bad under his leadership lol their record is 2-5 and they need a win so badly 
he's like dart's backup but i think he deserves more playing time 
. on the other hand, the patriots are looking strong and i'm curious to see how drake maye matches up against dart, both these young QBs have so much talent, it's gonna be a wild ride 
. Still, I guess it's better to have him out there than not at all, right? The Patriots are looking pretty strong this season, but I think the Giants can give them a run for their money 
. It'll be interesting to see how Dart holds up under that much pressure 
i dont think its fair that dart gets cleared to play after just two games, what if his brain isnt fully recovered yet? and another thing, whats the hurry for him to come back out there? the giants have been struggling so bad under his leadership, maybe they should have given winston more time to get it together first 
Anyway, back to Jaxson Dart - two games down with concussion? That's super concerning... hopefully he's not gonna get hurt again 
. And Drake Maye vs Dart? That's a matchup I'm actually kinda excited about 
. Can we just get to the game already?! 
. Like, two games isn't even enough time for his brain to fully recover? I'm worried about the long-term effects of concussions on his health and playing career 
. I mean, I get that they need him, but can't they just be more cautious with player safety? It's all about entertainment value now, not the well-being of the players 
Jaxson Dart is back on the gridiron after getting cleared for Monday Night Football, and I'm low-key hyped 
he's been gone for like two games with a concussion and i was worried he'd never play again 
but hey at least the Pats are looking good, 10 wins in a row is no joke 
Drake Maye vs Jaxson Dart is gonna be epic btw 
It's like they're just trying to get a win at all costs... and the Patriots are just gonna steamroll them again!
