Jaxson Dart shares picture with his mom from Kentucky Derby after her viral moment at NFL draft

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart has shared a pH๏τo with his mom, Kara, from the Kentucky Derby on social media after her viral moment from last month’s NFL Draft. 

Kara went viral after the Giants traded back into the first round after selecting Abdul Carter at No 3 overall to snag Dart at No 25, with the signal caller’s mother crying and hugging her son when the pick was announced. 

As she grabbed her son, her toned arm came fully into focus, with some NFL fans saying New York should have picked her instead. 

Kara has re-emerged on her son’s social media as part of a roll of pH๏τos from Dart as he transitions to big-league quarterback in the Big Apple. 

Jaxson and his mother are dressed to the nines outside Churchill Downs, where the famed thoroughbred race takes place every year. 

Kara is in a pink dress with a pink purse, while Jaxson donned a gray coat, gray dress pants, a beige hat, a pink undershirt and sublime sneakers.

Also in the pH๏τo from Louisville, taken two weekends ago, appear to be Jaxson’s father and sister. 

The social-media roll of pH๏τos also contains pictures from Dart’s first few weeks as a Giant, a snap from a Post Malone concert, and multiple pH๏τos from a fancy dinner, identified in the comments as taking place at Manhattan Italian restaurant Il Mulino.  

In early January, Dart said his mom was his inspiration before the team’s mᴀssive 52-20 win over Duke Blue Devils, saying: ‘I told my mom I was going to leave everything I had on the field and I did.’

Kara herself has a private personal Instagram account but has a separate one that focuses on running and fitness that has been inactive for a few years. She’s also into fashion, and gives Dart advice on his pre-game outfits. 

Jaxson will work alongside Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston this year, with both veteran quarterbacks on one-year deals in New York.

Former Super Bowl winner Wilson will go into the season as the No 1 starter for the blue side of New York, the team has confirmed.  

Giants general manager Joe Schoen also has stated the plan is for Dart to sit all of the 2025 season and learn from Winston and Wilson.
