Overview

  • Russell Wilson received the majority of first-team snaps during Wednesday’s session, underlining his role as the Giants’ starting quarterback.
  • Rookie Jaxson Dart spent most reps with the third team, though he logged three first-team snaps in red-zone drills, throwing a touchdown pass, rushing for a score and tossing an interception.
  • Head coach Brian Daboll confirmed a structured rotation that will ensure reps for Wilson, Jameis Winston, Dart and Tommy DeVito throughout spring practices.
  • Wilson began OTAs with three straight incompletions but visibly improved as he adapted to the new offense designed by Daboll and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka.
  • Teammates such as guard Greg Van Roten and linebacker Bobby Okereke praised Wilson’s Super Bowl pedigree and leadership presence in the locker room.
