New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart concluded his rookie year preseason with another fine performance, capped by an injury scare.

After a 23-yard run on fourth down late in the first quarter Thursday night against the New England Patriots, Dart tried to run over two defenders. He fumbled, and his head slammed to the ground. The officials stopped play and required him to leave the field.

Jameis Winston threw a 30-yard touchdown pass on the next play while Dart was examined.

Dart was checked in the blue medical tent before emerging minutes later.
