Giants’ coach Brian Daboll appreciates Jaxson Dart’s handling of rookie minicamp

It has not taken New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll long to gain an appreciation for how rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, drafted No. 25 overall, works.

“He did what he was supposed to do. He was prepared. He put a lot of time and effort into it,” Daboll said of how Dart handled the two days of rookie minicamp. “I got a lot of appreciation for how he’s gone about short amount of time his business, and that’s what’s most important is how we can get him to a routine meeting with players extra, having walkthroughs at the hotels, communication, that’s part of playing quarterback is being on top of all those little things and if he can’t be on top of him, then the other guys, if they don’t know him, he can’t direct him in the right direction .
