The rookie quarterback thanked his former coach for everything that he's done for him in the league.

"Obviously, there's been a lot that's happened since I've been up here," Dart said. "I just want to acknowledge Coach Dabs and all that he did for me. When I look back on everything, it's really special to come to a place where a coach genuinely cares about you and loves you and you have that personal relationship on and off the field. So, I just have all the respect in the world for him. I think he's an incredible offensive mind. He's done an amazing job of developing me up to this point.

"When I look back at that game, there's not a hit where I'm like, 'Dang, I shouldn't have taken that hit' to be honest, " Dart said as per SI. "I felt like I was making smart decisions. I didn't really take unnecessary hits.
"That was just a situation where you kind of lose control of your body when you fumble it, and you're not really bracing for the ground. But obviously, moving forward, now I've got to be more available for this team, so that's obviously on the forefront of my mind going forward."

Jaxson Dart and the Giants will face the Patriots on Monday at 8:15 p.m. ET. Can he help end their six-game losing streak?
