Giants Rookie QB Jaxson Dart Shrugs Off His Hamstring Injury and Says He'll Play vs. the Eagles
Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart will play Thursday despite a hamstring injury sustained two weeks ago, having played all snaps in the last game, coach Brian Daboll said.
- Thursday night, New York Giants coach Brian Daboll brushed off the hamstring that limited rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart in practice and expects him to play against the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
- Dart's hamstring first surfaced during his initial start and traces back to a game weeks ago against the Los Angeles Chargers, leading to limited practice this week.
- In New Orleans on Sunday, the first-round pick played all 70 snaps despite turnovers, including two interceptions and a fumble, in a loss that dropped the Giants to 1-4.
- Injury news leaves New York short-handed as Darius Slayton, wide receiver, missed practice again and seems unlikely for Thursday, while Jermaine Eluemunor, starting right tackle, and Tyrone Tracy Jr., running back, may return.
- The rookie stressed confidence earlier this week, telling reporters `Yeah, never a doubt` he would play, and praised the Super Bowl winner he admires for his leadership.
