Russell Wilson stock continues to be at an all-time low.

The New York Giants quarterback Wilson briefly came on in relief for starter Jaxson Dart during Thursday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. In the third quarter, Dart got sacked and briefly head to go to the medical tent to be checked for a concussion.

As a result, Wilson came on and handed the ball off to Tyrone Tracy for the first snap. On the second snap, Wilson spiked a ball into the turf while targeting Jalin Hyatt and heard it from the home crowd, who immediately began booing him.

Here is another video where the boos were more audible.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll was also seen in the above video seemingly yelling at the team’s medical staff for an update on Dart.

The Giants punted from there on 4th-and-9, and Dart was fortunately able to return by the next offensive drive, having passed the concussion check. New York also went on to win the game 34-17.

The 10-time Pro Bowler Wilson began the season as the Giants’ starter but went 0-3. The Giants then turned to Dart as their new starting QB and have since gone 2-1.

Wilson, who turns 37 next month, has had plenty of great moments in his storied NFL career. But Giants fans have absolutely no love for him at this point, and that was even cited for why the team benched Wilson in the first place.
