Overview

  • Russell Wilson opened the game with a seven-pass, 28-yard drive that set up New York’s first field goal before yielding to the rookie.
  • Jaxson Dart completed 12 of 19 passes for 159 yards and a touchdown without throwing any interceptions in his first NFL action.
  • New York’s offensive line protected four quarterbacks through 51 dropbacks without surrendering a single sack.
  • A postgame embrace between Dart and his mother, Kara, underscored the emotional significance of the Orchard Park debut.
  • With Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito also seeing game reps, the Giants have yet to name a clear No. 2 option behind Wilson.
