Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart<\/a> is already forming a strong bond with head coach Brian Daboll. He praised his constant coaching style after Friday’s practice session with the team.<\/p>\n The Giants selected Dart with the 25th pick in the 2025 NFL draft after trading back into the first round.<\/p>\n The rookie quarterback addressed reporters following a practice session where he received hands-on instruction from Daboll. He is known for developing Josh Allen<\/a> into a star with the Buffalo Bills<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u2022 <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n “Yeah, he coaches me up like every second I’m around him,” Dart said. “He’s the guy that will walk in a room, say goodbye and whatnot, and then come back 30 seconds later because he has an idea. So he’s constantly coaching me, and I think that that’s just what I want to be around.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n Looking to predict NFL playoff Scenarios?

I feel like that’s going to help me excel at the highest level and help me reach my potential. So there’s not another coach I’d be playing for.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The Giants completely revamped their quarterback room this offseason. The team signed veterans Russell Wilson<\/a> and Jameis Winston<\/a> in free agency before selecting Dart in the draft following the release of Daniel Jones<\/a> last season.<\/p>\n According to multiple sources before the draft, Jaxson Dart<\/a> was specifically the quarterback Daboll preferred over other options, including Shedeur Sanders<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dart impressed New York throughout the process with his meeting demeanor, board work and workout performances. That ultimately pushed the Giants to make a strong push in a trade with Houston, offering the 34th, 99th and a 2026 third-round pick to take him.<\/p>\n When asked about the pressure of New York and his readiness for the big stage, Dart showed both confidence and awareness of the city’s edge:<\/p>\n “I just feel like I got an edge to me,” Dart said at his introductory press conference. “I feel like everybody in the city does as well. Let’s get to it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Dart passed for 11,970 yards, 81 touchdowns and 27 interceptions in four seasons at Ole Miss. Giants management has said that<\/a> Wilson will be the starter with Winston to follow, allowing Dart time to grow.<\/p>\n![\"march](\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/march-madness-logo.png\"){kind=logo}
