Pro Football Focus grades are out and WR Zach Pascal was the New York Giants' highest-graded player in Week 2 of the preseason.
After yet another impressive preseason performance that has sparked increased hype for Big Blue's quarterback of the future, New York Giants coach Brian Daboll reaffirmed the team's plan to continue to "develop" rookie Jaxson Dart while veteran Russell Wilson remains the starting quarterback.
The New York Giants have jumped out to a 2-0 start in the preseason thanks to part to second-year running back Dante Miller's clutch carries.
As Hyatt spoke, Dart strolled by — en route from the shower to his locker — and shot Hyatt a playful, goofy glance. A 22-year-old kid letting himself enjoy the afterglow of an encouraging evening. Stop and smell the cologne, if you will.
As for the game, the Giants handily defeated the Jets 31–12, continuing their preseason dominance with a 2-0 record. Quarterback Jaxson Dart led the Giants’ aerial attack with 137 passing yards and a touchdown, while the Giants’ rushing corps piled on three touchdowns on the ground.
Jaxson Dart took another step Saturday night toward grabbing the Giants’ starting quarterback job if Russell Wilson falters early this regular season.
Here’s what to look for in the Giants’ second preseason game against the Jets on Saturday at MetLife Stadium: It is always a race and a chase for the final spots at the wide receiver position. If we assume Jalin Hyatt is safe — in an up and down summer, this might not be a safe assumption — then there are only two spots open.
The New York Jets and New York Giants will meet in a 2025 NFL preseason game on Saturday. The Jets and Giants share a home at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., and the Giants will be the designated home team this year.
