New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart will miss a second consecutive game because of a concussion.
Interim coach Mike Kafka said Friday that Dart remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol and will not play Sunday on the road against the Detroit Lions. Journeyman Jameis Winston is set to start again in Dart’s absence, with Russell Wilson backing up.
Dart was knocked out of the Giants’ game against the Chicago Bears on Nov. 9 after taking a hit to the head. He did not play last weekend when New York hosted the Green Bay Packers.
The team hoped Dart would progress quickly enough to get cleared to face the Lions. The 22-year-old was a limited participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday and would have needed to take part fully Friday to play.
Winston was 19 of 29 for 201 ya
