Giants' 31-12 preseason win over the Jets signals a promising step forward at quarterback, with Jackson Dart showing pro-level processing and quick decision-making in his two drives. Russell Wilson’s veteran presence remains a floor-raiser, especially in the deep-ball department, keeping the offense functional if Dart is leaned on more this season. The coaches’ guard-rails for Dart—paired with two veteran backups—create a clearer path for Week 1 readiness. Evan Neal’s move inside shores up the interior protection and helps the run game, while the offense uses a robust TE and receiver stable, including Lil Jordan Humphrey and Amir Smith-Marsette, to create matchup variety. On defense, Dexter Lawrence’s absence shows up in run-stopping depth, but youngsters and rising players at DT and the edge spots hint at a deeper front seven as the season approaches. The final tune-up against New England will shape the 53-man roster and open the playbook for Brian Daboll’s multiple-TE and multi-back looks.
