EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart cleared concussion protocol on Thursday, setting the stage for him to return Monday night against the New England Patriots.
Dart missed the past two games with a concussion suffered Nov. 9 against the Chicago Bears. Jameis Winston started in his place.
Dart, a first-round pick earlier this year, has started seven games. He's thrown 10 touchdown passes and rushed for seven more.
The rookie returns after practicing in full for the first time on Wednesday. He was a limited participant in practice last week.
