Hero Ball: Jaxson Dart Apparently Tried To Come Back Into The Game After His Injury, Which Is Reportedly A Sprained MCL

I don't know how anything can be positive after that game, but this feels like best case scenario? I mean I'm not a doctor or smart enough to diagnose anything, but a sprained MCL and missing a little bit of time feels like a win after that hit. That felt like it was going to be way worse when he was clutching his knee. It was a hit directly on it and I think - stress the think part - he was lucky that his leg wasn't planted. That feels like when dudes blow out the knee. 

I love that he tried to re-enter the game. Give me a QB1 who will do anything to try and compete in week 2. This wasn't trying to avoid the blue tent or anything, this was him saying that offense looks like shit without me. Let me get back out there and try to help. Even smarter for the Giants not to let him. I don't need him risking a more serious injury, but I want him to think he's fine. 

Now, here comes the truth. You get the Titans next week. You HAVE to win that game. Get through the Titans and Cardinals, you're 3-1 and can start talking about when Dart's coming back. 

I just want one season though where we're not talking about this. I want one game where I don't have to talk about Dart trying to get back into the game after an injury. For the love of all things holy just get healthy. This shit has to stop at some point. Not even just a Dart thing. This whole franchise is injury cursed. Just get healthy and win now.
