Giants See Dart Sliding During Practice

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart practiced sliding during training camp, a skill emphasized by coach John Harbaugh for player safety.

Jaxson Dart showcased improved self-preservation during Giants practice by successfully sliding inbounds during a critical third-down drill. The move, more common in baseball, was welcomed by teammates and coach John Harbaugh who has emphasized player safety since taking the job.

Dart's slide comes after he left five games last season to be checked for concussions following big hits. Defensive end Brian Burns expressed satisfaction with Dart's decision to practice sliding, noting teammates had been encouraging this behavior for some time. michezonews.co.za
