Jaxson Dart’s introduction of President Donald Trump may have created some internal strife.
Dart addressed his teammates in a meeting Wednesday to discuss his introduction of President Trump at Rockland Community College last week in Suffern, N.Y., according to NFL Network‘s Mike Garafolo.
Veterans Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeau and Jameis Winston also spoke in the meeting, per a separate NFL Network report from Ian Rapaport.
The meeting appears to have gone as well, with the team “moving forward,” per Garafolo.
It is unclear what Dart said to his teammates, but we know one player who previously wasn’t happy with Dart’s dash into politics.
Pass rusher Abdul Carter said he “thought the video was AI” and questioned “what are we doing” as the video floated throughout social media, creating a firestorm of headlines.
Carter has since said explained he “spoke man to man” with Dart and that it is no longer an issue, but it appears the headline-grabbing appearance was worth addressing to the larger group as well.
Dart is entering his second year and is expected to take a massive step forward both as a leader and on the field in 2026, as the Giants hope to reestablish themselves as a contender.
