Kinkhabwala: Jaxson Dart Won’t Fall Past Saints At No. 9

The Pittsburgh Steelers have done a lot of homework on the quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL Draft. They’ve met extensively with Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders, Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart, and Alabama’s Jalen Milroe. And the expectation was that they were going to have at least a shot at all three of those quarterbacks at 21.

But reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala doesn’t think that’s going to happen with Jaxson Dart. It’s quite interesting, actually. At one point, Shedeur Sanders was expected to be a top-10 pick. Now, Kinkhabwala expects Dart to be drafted in that range.

“What I’m being told is that Jaxson Dart is not going to fall beyond that number nine pick and the Saints,” said Kinkhabwala said Thursday morning on CBS Sports HQ.
