‘May get released’ – Who the Giants fans are blaming for hard QB hit on Jaxson Dart in pre-season
New York Giants fans have wasted little time pointing the finger at Tyrone Tracy Jr. after Jaxson Dart took a huge hit during Saturday’s 13-10 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
New York Giants fans have been quick to blame running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. for a hard hit on quarterback Jaxson Dart during the team's preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Dart was hit by Vikings safety Jay Ward while being blitzed, resulting in the Giants quarterback being sent to the medical tent for a concussion evaluation.
However, Dart was later cleared and returned to the game, even throwing a touchdown pass to rookie Malachi Fields. Giants fans are questioning how the hit could have happened, with some supporters suggesting that Tracy should be released or traded. Tracy himself admitted to having his eyes on the wrong side after hearing an alert, but that explanation did little to calm the crowd.
Other fans were more critical, including one who stated that "this is on #29 who failed to block the DB." Head coach John Harbaugh acknowledged that the play was a protection issue, emphasizing the need for better blocking before the regular season.
