Giants Coach Brian Daboll Shocks by Yelling at Medical Staff Over Jaxson Dart Injury
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – The New York Giants’ 34-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday Night Football (October 9, 2025) was marked not only by the score, but also by a tense moment for head coach Brian Daboll. In the third quarter, Daboll was seen yelling at medical staff about quarterback Jaxson Dart’s condition, drawing attention at MetLife Stadium.
The incident occurred when Dart, a 22-year-old star draftee, was hit hard and had to go into the medical tent to be checked for a concussion. He was replaced by Russell Wilson, a 36-year-old former Pro Bowler who started the season but was loudly yelled at by fans. Daboll, clearly nervous, yelled for an immediate update on Dart, according to a viral video on X.
Wilson entered the field for just two snaps: a handoff to Tyrone Tracy and a failed spike pass aimed at Jalin Hyatt, prompting Giants fans to chant in protest. “Wilson is done, Dart is the future!” – a post on X received thousands of likes. The Giants had to punt on 4th-and-9, but fortunately, Dart returned the next drive, passing the injury check.
The context for this tension was Daboll’s bold decision earlier. After Wilson led the Giants to an 0-3 start to the season (against the Cowboys, Commanders, Chiefs), he was benched. Jaxson Dart, in impressive form, has helped the Giants go 2-1 since then, raising their record to 2-3 against the Eagles, according to ESPN.
Daboll’s concern reflects Dart’s importance to a rebuilding team. “Jaxson is the heart of our team. I just want to make sure he’s okay,” Daboll said after the game, though he declined to comment on Wilson. Fans on X continued to debate, with the hashtags #GiantsFuture and #BooWilson trending heavily.
The win over the Eagles, which attracted 15 million viewers via Amazon Prime, marked a turning point for the Giants. Will Dart continue to shine, or will the Wilson drama continue? The 2025 NFL season promises to be full of drama!
