During Saturday’s NFL preseason contest at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, Utah-native New York Giants starting quarterback Jaxson Dart was struck by Minnesota Vikings safety Jay Ward, resulting in a significant collision that left the player on the ground for an extended period.
Dart was assessed for a potential concussion but returned to his position shortly afterward and scored a touchdown later in the game.
The incident has drawn online attention due to Dart having introduced former President Donald Trump at a rally in May. Social justice musician Bill Madden stated: “Every defense in the NFL knows Jaxson Dart is MAGA. The Trump-loving piece of st better get used to this kind of treatment — because he can expect it ALL SEASON LONG.”
