Overview

• Head coach Brian Daboll informed both quarterbacks of the switch, with Wilson moving to the primary backup role for now, according to multiple reports.
• Drafted 25th overall, Dart impressed in the preseason but has logged only six regular-season snaps with no pass attempts to date.
• Wilson’s Week 3 line against the Chiefs (18-of-32, 160 yards, two interceptions, 43.8 rating) and audible “We want Dart” chants at MetLife accelerated the change.
• Daboll publicly said the team was “evaluating everything” before finalizing the decision, and Dart’s first start comes against a defense allowing roughly 17 points per game.
• The move heightens scrutiny on Daboll and GM Joe Schoen, while coverage notes Wilson’s longer-term status is uncertain, ranging from mentor role to possible trade consideration.
