Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart, who has a relationship with the Manning family, says joining the New York Giants would be a “smooth transition.”

He grew up in Utah, spent one year in Los Angeles at USC and for the past three years has been hunkered down in Oxford, Miss. Imagine if Jaxson Dart finds his way into the NFL as a Giants draft pick and embarks on his professional career in the league’s biggest media market?

The Giants have been searching for a long-term answer at quarterback since even before Manning retired following the 2019 season.
