The Giants took a gamble drafting Ole MIss quarterback Jaxson Dart 25th overall in April, and there are signs that the gamble is working out in the near term. In nine games this season, Dart has thrown for 10 touchdowns against three interceptions while ranking in the top 10 in the league in Total Quarterback Rating (64.8) and rushing touchdowns (seven).
This success may not be a surprise to those that watched Dart with the Rebels, however. Ex-New York quarterback Eli Manning certainly did, and in a Thursday morning interview with SI promoting Flag & Anthem Manning praised the most efficient passer in FBS a year ago.
