Overview

• Dart reiterated this week that he patterns his style after Hurts’ blend of power running and pocket strength, calling their games similar.
• Hurts responded by lauding Dart as “a hell of a player” and said he is rooting for the Giants rookie’s success.
• Through two starts, Dart has completed 39 of 60 passes for 322 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions, and he has rushed 19 times for 102 yards and a score.
• Dart joined Randall Cunningham, Lamar Jackson and Hurts as the only quarterbacks in the Super Bowl era with at least 50 rushing yards in each of their first two career starts.
• Lane Kiffin and Brian Daboll — who have coached both quarterbacks — highlighted their similarities, as the Giants also assess defensive rotations (Deonte Banks vs. Cor’Dale Flott) and monitor injuries with several players’ statuses close to game time.
