The NFL has opened an investigation into whether Giants head coach Brian Daboll and others violated concussion protocol during rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart’s evaluation in Thursday night’s win against the Eagles, a violation that could result in fines and loss of draft picks.
Dart was taken into the medical tent in the third quarter to be evaluated for a concussion. Daboll repeatedly went near the tent, hoping Dart would be cleared and reinserted into the game. After the game, Daboll explained what happened when he went to check on Dart.
“We were getting ready to go for it on a potential fourth down,” Daboll said. “I would have burned a timeout if he could have came out there, so I was asking how long is it going to take?”
