Week 2 of the NFL preseason delivered a clear signal: Jaxson Dart is emerging as the league’s standout rookie quarterback through two exhibitions, completing 26 of 35 passes for 291 yards with two touchdowns across Giants performances. His poise, accuracy on middle throws, and a slick fake that freed Greg Dulcich for a score hint at a real developmental arc in New York’s QB competition. TreVeyon Henderson flashed burst and patience, hinting at a meaningful early role for New England, while Teddy Bridgewater delivered a couple of red-zone darts that underscored his value as a trusted veteran in Tampa Bay. Philadelphia rookie Andrew Mukuba showed a nose for the football with a pick-six and a fumble recovery, offering a potential secondary option for a rebuilding secondary. On the downside, MarShawn Lloyd’s lingering injury woes and the Cowboys’ backup shakeups stalled fantasy optimism, Joe Milton III struggled for Dallas, Van Jefferson combined a clean route with a missed catch, and Stafford’s unclear return schedule cast a cloud over the Rams’ offensive window. Week 2 left managers with a mix of fresh optimism and cautious notes as rosters thin and roles sharpen.
