In a preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings on August 15, New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart underwent a concussion check after a significant hit. Head coach John Harbaugh expressed confusion over the hit, stating it should not have occurred due to basic protection breakdowns. Dart was struck by safety Jay Ward following a missed blitz pickup by running back Tyrone Tracy. Meanwhile, Harbaugh addressed comments about a potential game-tying field goal, indicating wind conditions influenced the decision against attempting a long kick. He praised rookie wide receiver Malachi Fields for his strong performance, which included a touchdown catch.
