New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart told reporters at his introductory press conference Friday that "it's surreal" he'll get the chance to play with nine-time Pro Bowler Russell Wilson.

The New York Giants traded back into the first round of the 2025 NFL draft to select quarterback Jaxson Dart on Thursday. With Dart getting picked by New York, he follows in the footsteps of franchise great Eli Manning, who also played quarterback at Ole Miss before becoming the Giants signal-caller.

From one Mississippi quarterback to another, Eli Manning sent Jaxson Dart a congratulatory video after going to the Giants in the 2025 NFL Draft.
