Overview
- Rookie Jaxson Dart capped an unbeaten preseason by completing 68.1% of his throws for 372 yards with three touchdowns, no interceptions and a 113.1 passer rating.
- Daboll has named Wilson the Week 1 starter at Washington and said the staff is focused on developing Dart, offering only “we’ll see” on who serves as the primary backup.
- Opinion pieces escalated on Tuesday, with ESPN’s Mike Tannenbaum saying Dart gives New York its best chance to win and The Athletic labeling him a preseason winner.
- Trade chatter remains speculative, but NBC’s Mike Florio noted Wilson’s one‑year, $10.5 million deal could be movable since the acquiring team would owe roughly $2 million.
- Albert Breer reported Wilson has set a leadership tone that has benefited young receivers such as Malik Nabers, even as calls for Dart could grow if early losses pile up.
