Overview
- Dart will make his first NFL start in Week 4 against the Chargers, with Brian Daboll declaring him the starter for the remainder of 2025 and Russell Wilson moving to the No. 2 role.
- Giants coaches have consulted Ole Miss staff and plan to expand zone-read and RPO concepts and use more no-huddle tempo that suited Dart in college and the preseason.
- Several players said they learned of the switch on social media, and local reporting notes frustration that Jameis Winston was not given a chance to start.
- Dianna Russini reports the call was Daboll’s, not ownership’s or the GM’s, and that New York has no current plans to trade Wilson as he remains a respected presence in the locker room.
- Chargers staff describe Dart as a talented but hard-to-scout opponent, and Los Angeles brings a defense ranked fourth in points allowed into Sunday’s matchup.
