The New York Giants secured their long-sought quarterback of the future on Thursday by trading up into the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft to select Jaxson Dart of Ole Miss.
The Giants traded picks 34, 99 and a 2026 third-round pick to the Houston Texans for pick No. 25 in Round 1. Shedeur Sanders of Colorado was also still on the board when the Giants selected Dart.
The Giants selected Penn State edge defender Abdul Carter with the third overall pick.
Dart, 21, spent a season at USC and then three years at Ole Miss.
