The Giants continue to search for stability at the quarterback position, a position that, since the retirement of Eli Manning, no one has been able to convincingly fill. That is why, ahead of the 2025 season, the team decided to start from scratch in its quarterback room, starting the year with only Tommy DeVito under contract, before adding two big names: Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston.
Wilson signed a one-year, $10.5 million contract on March 26. A few days later, the team added Winston on a two-year, $8 million deal, which led to speculation about what the real long-term plan at the position would be.

Finally, in the 2025 Draft, the Giants made an aggressive move: they moved up to the 25th pick in the first round to select young Jaxson Dart, a clear sign that they see him as a possible future starter.
Tannenbaum supports idea of making Dart starting QB
While head coach Brian Daboll has confirmed that Wilson is the starter at the start of training camp, voices such as ESPN analyst and former New York Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum believe the team should gamble on Dart’s development from the start.
If it were up to me, Jaxson Dart would have been the starter three weeks ago. From day one, the first replay, the first game. Wouldn’t you rather win five games with a rising Jaxson Dart, than six with a declining Russell Wilson? Wouldn’t you want to have hope?
Tannenbaum recalled his time with the Jets, where they went with rookie Mark Sanchez from his first season and managed to reach two AFC finals. For him, the Giants should follow a similar strategy with Dart, focusing on his development and growth, even if it means sacrificing some short-term wins.
Who will be the Giants’ starting QB?
However, not everyone shares this approach, as for many, including die-hard Giants fan and ESPN host Molly Qerim, this would be a risky gamble and could even be counterproductive to rush a starring role in the young star, as the history of the NFL has shown that placing a rookie too soon can negatively affect their development and, in some cases, truncate promising careers.
From a strategic point of view, the best option is to allow Dart to learn behind a veteran like Wilson during the first weeks of the season. But beyond the start, many expect Dart to have the opportunity to show his talent before the end of the year. Although Wilson will probably be the starter in Week 1, it would not be surprising if Dart is in charge of the offense by Week 18.
