EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Giants coach Brian Daboll brushed off the hamstring injury that had Jaxson Dart listed as a limited participant on the team’s practice report and expects the rookie quarterback to play Thursday night against reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia.
Dart’s sore left hamstring was initially revealed when he made and won his first NFL start on Sept. 28. He only missed time that day while being evaluated for a concussion and played the entire game this past weekend at New Orleans.
Asked Tuesday if this was the same injury or something new for Dart, Daboll said only, “He'll be OK.”
Dart threw two interceptions and fumbled in a turnover-heavy loss to the Saints on Sunday that dropped the Giants to 1-4.
