Overview

  • NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Wilson will start again as the Giants lean toward patience after Week 1.
  • Rapoport says a tailored package is ready for Dart, which was included in the Week 1 plan but went unused.
  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports there is no internal sense of urgency to bench Wilson despite outside pressure.
  • The Athletic’s Dianna Russini notes Thomas is not expected to play against Dallas, says Dart entering is “not off the table,” and frames the approach as developmental.
  • Public scrutiny intensified after the 21–6 loss to Washington, with NBA star Draymond Green blasting Brian Daboll’s handling of the QB situation.
