New York sports radio staple Craig Carton, however, did not mince his words and criticized the young signal-caller for focusing on the wrong things. “Jaxson Dart is going to have to learn how to say no at some point, because he is living the life of a guy that has already accomplished a lot in the NFL, whether that’s MVPs, whether that’s Super Bowls, etc,” Carton said.
