"It was the question hovering over the New York Giants ever since the 2025 NFL draft in late April. When were they going to turn to rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart? There were plans and hopes and dreams of Russell Wilson magically finding the fountain of youth while serving as the bridge quarterback to the No. 25 pick out of Ole Miss. It didn't matter. The answer ultimately was Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers."
"Wilson would start until the Giants couldn't justify him being the starter anymore. At that point, Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen, in need of results, would have no choice but to turn to Dart. The Giants (0-3) are one of six winless teams. Their head coach and GM are under pressure, having amassed a 9-28 record since the start of the 2023 season, and in 2025 their offense has produced fewer than 300 yards of offense in two of the three games."
The New York Giants will start rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers, moving Russell Wilson to the backup role. The team enters the game 0-3 and is one of six winless franchises. Head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen face mounting pressure after compiling a 9-28 record since 2023 and fielding an offense that produced fewer than 300 yards in two of three 2025 games. Owner John Mara emphasized the need for improvement. The decision to turn to Dart followed Daboll leaving the door open to a change earlier in the week.
