NFL reviewing Giants handling of concussion protocol after Brian Daboll's tense exchange with team doctor

The New York Giants shocked the Philadelphia Eagles, beating them 34-17. Colin Cowherd asks what went wrong for the Eagles and whether Jaxson Dart is the Giants’ franchise QB.

The third start of rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart's career was undoubtedly his best. The rookie threw for 195 yards in the New York Giants 34-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

But before Dart could officially celebrate the second victory of his NFL career, the 22-year-old entered the medical tent to be evaluated for a possible concussion. Russell Wilson, who was the Giants' starter for the first three games, briefly entered Thursday night's game.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll became visibly upset once Dart left the game. The team's head physician, Dr. Scott A. Rodeo, then got caught in the crosshairs.

Daboll appeared to scream at Dr. Rodeo during a heated exchange while other medical personnel checked Dart for a head injury. The rookie quarterback missed just two plays before returning to action.

Nevertheless, the NFL decided to take a closer look into the team's application of the concussion protocol, ESPN reported Friday. Daboll later issued an apology for his role in the tense moment with Dr. Rodeo.
