New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart and linebacker Brian Burns are out for the season, and both spent Sunday afternoon the way injured players usually do: On a couch, watching a game they could not affect.
Neither stayed quiet when Deonte Banks ended it.
As Banks stepped in front of a Jacoby Brissett pass and took it 98 yards to the house, Dart's arms went up and then landed on his head as the cornerback crossed the goal line. Almost none of what the quarterback said made it through the audio. His girlfriend was screaming through the celebration, and the only line that cut through was "Oh my God."
@JaxsonDart was so happy for his boys 💙

Burns, rehabbing a torn ACL, posted his own clip and tagged
Banks. The camera missed the moment that mattered. By the time the video starts, the edge rusher is already watching a replay of the return, so the live reaction never made the cut.
What did was Burns talking to the screen.

"Take that (expletive) to the crib, boy," he said. "Wish y'all would have gotten my real reaction."
The play did not need a second viewing to land, but will be watched over and over again by fans and Giants players alike.
