Jaxson Dart Suffers Concussion During Giants’ Loss to Bears
New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart suffered a concussion during the team’s 24-20 loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 10 of the 2025 NFL season. Dart exited late in the third quarter after a hit from Bears safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, resulting in a fumble recovered by Chicago. Backup quarterback Russell Wilson finished the game for New York. Before his injury, Dart posted 241 passing yards, completing 19 of 29 attempts with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also added 66 rushing yards and scored two touchdowns on the ground, though he lost a fumble on the play that led to his concussion. Despite his efforts, the Giants were unable to secure the win, dropping their record to 2-8 for the season. Dart’s concussion is notable as it marks the fourth time he has been evaluated for such an injury this season, including preseason, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. He is now in the NFL’s concussion protocol, which has no fixed timeline for return. Clearance requires progression through a five-step process and independent approval from a neurologist unaffiliated with any NFL club. This situation raises concerns about Dart’s long-term health and availability for future games. If Dart is unavailable for the Giants’ upcoming matchup against the Green Bay Packers, Russell Wilson is expected to start at quarterback. Dart, a product of Ole Miss and Southern California, has shown promise in his rookie campaign, earning Offensive Rookie of the Month honors and providing a dual-threat presence for New York.

As the season progresses, his health status will be a key storyline for a Giants team searching for stability at quarterback.
