Amid two-plus seasons of losing football, the Brian Daboll era is in dire straits. The prevailing opinion has always been that the New York Giants head coach will retain his post if rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart impresses.

David Zalubowski / AP NEW YORK — The NFL levied three fines totaling $315,000 against the New York Giants on Friday for violating concussion protocol by peeking into a medical tent to check on injured quarterback Jaxson Dart during an in-game evaluation two weeks ago.

As he generally does, Daboll updated the status of several injured players, including center John Michael Schmitz, who is "making very good progress" in concussion protocol. Meanwhile, defensive lineman D.J. Davidson was added to the injury.

The New York Giants suffered a stunning loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, allowing 33 fourth-quarter points.
