EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — One play into the New York Giants’ fourth possession of their second preseason game, Brian Daboll called in Jaxson Dart without warning.

The New York Giants had their second successful preseason game, and this time they bested the New York Jets 31-12.

Following Saturday night's matchup between the Giants and the New York Jets, Griffin took to social media to praise Dart's effort throughout his second NFL showing. It's safe to say the former Washington Commanders star is impressed with the first-round pick.

Dart has been the best rookie quarterback of the preseason. He checked in No. 1 in these rankings for Tyler Sullivan last week and sits atop them once again in Week 2. He's now 26 of 35 for 291 yards and two touchdowns through the air during New York's two preseason contests.

Reporter believes Giants HC Brian Daboll will take similar approach with quarterback Jaxson Dart as he did with Josh Allen on Bills in 2018

Dart has another stellar performance, Russell Wilson hits signature deep throw and Neal plays first NFL game at guard.

Once the regular season begins those strides will continue to be taken by Dart behind the scenes, in meetings and practices away from the scrutiny of media and the fans. That, though, won’t last forever. Dart’s time is coming.

After two joint practices this week, the New York Giants and New York Jets will battle Saturday night for MetLife
