Jaxson Dart ink $ 17 million on a recruited contract while QB giants begin Odyssey

There was a time not so long ago, when the NFL First Round is regularly engaged in retained, trying to withdraw more money from their new employers.

Often, the recruits that held the longest were quarters.

Times have changed since 2011, when the league has instituted a recruited salary scale.

Nowadays, the signatures are roughly formula, which is why Jaxson Dart putting the pen on paper on Friday concerned more accounting and timing for the giants.

DART has signed a four -year contract for $ 17 million, all fully guaranteed, with $ 9 million included as a signature bonus.

The Giants exchanged in the first round of the NFL 2025 draft, making an agreement with the Texans, to select DART at n ° 25.

He broke several of Eli Manning’s passes in Ole Miss during his three years as a starter after being transferred from the USC.

This spring, Dart participated in the minicamp recruit as well as in the activity practices of the team organized with the veterans, seeming impressive with regard to the strength and mobility of the arms.

The 22 -year -old plan for his first season is to wait for his turn behind the veterans quarter Russell Wilson (the leaving) and Jameis Winston (the backup).

There are no immediate plans for dart on the ground as a recruit, but these plans are likely to change – depending on the way Wilson plays, the operation of the offensive and the quantity of victory and losing the giants while they sail on what, on paper, is the most difficult calendar in the league.

There is no doubt that head coach Brian Daboll is excited by the addition of Dart.

After almost all the representatives of the practice, Daboll can be seen speaking or instructing the youngest quarter of the list.
