Analyst’s ‘cut Russell Wilson, start Jaxson Dart’ plan not best for rookie QB

File this in the “wild offseason hot take aimed at getting attention — which it is getting — that is not going to happen.”

NFL analyst Mark Schlereth believes the Giants “rip off the Band-Aid,” cut Russell Wilson, and start Jaxson Dart from Week 1 of the 2025 season.

“The Giants should cut Russell Wilson and start Jaxson Dart ... I think it’s just time to rip off the Band-Aid and say Jaxson Dart you’re our guy.”

Schlereth compared the situation to the Denver Broncos moving on from Wilson, drafting Bo Nix, and making the playoffs a season ago.
