Overview

• Dart has gone 26-for-35 for 291 yards, two passing touchdowns and no interceptions through two preseason games and added a rushing score in a cameo opportunity
• In Week 2 Brian Daboll inserted Dart for a single snap on a 30-yard sidearm screen to Theo Johnson as part of contrived in-game scenarios to keep him ready
• The Giants’ unofficial depth chart still ranks Dart behind Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston and Daboll has reaffirmed Wilson as the Week 1 starter
• Pro Football Focus assigned Dart a 67.4 preseason grade (30th among QBs), reflecting evaluators’ caution over small sample sizes and vanilla defenses
• The coaching staff’s assessment also factors in Malik Nabers’ uncertain availability and a softer run defense with Dexter Lawrence sidelined
