Summary

Dart Scores

The NFL medical timeout employed three independent neurotrauma consultants and two unaffiliated certified athletic trainers to review the replay before sending quarterback Dart to the medical tent.
Running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. missed his pass-blocking assignment, exposing Dart to safety Jay Ward’s unblocked rush.
After the concussion exam, Dart completed a 15-yard touchdown pass to rookie wide receiver Malachi Fields, finishing 3-of-4 for 26 yards.
