Wilson spent last season with the Pittsburgh Steelers and had a 6-5 file in 11 games with them. The Bowler Pro 10 times completed 63.7% of its passes for 2,482 yards with 16 affected and five interceptions last season.
Wilson, Winston and Dart were part of the giant front office goal to revise the quarter-a disastrous season last year, when they went 3-14.
Last season, Daniel Jones, Drew Lock and Tommy Devito all received departures. Devito is the only one who remains in the team, and he argues for a place. The Giants signed Wilson to a one -year contract of $ 10.5 million with the intention of starting the former Seattle Seahawks star.
While Wilson will start in week 1, if he has trouble, the fans will claim Dart to take control of the starting work.

The director general of the Giants, Joe Schoen, noted at the press conference that when the current offensive coordinator Mike Kafka was with the Chiefs of Kansas City, Patrick Mahomes played only one match at the end of his recruit season.
Schoen also mentioned that when he and Daboll were with the Buffalo Bills, Josh Allen participated in a week 1 game during his recruit year and never abandoned the departure position.
Winston and Dart will compete for the quarter -rescue station throughout the training camp.
Winston played 12 games with the Cleveland Browns last year, including seven departures, and made 61.1% of its passes for 2,121 yards with 13 affected and 12 interceptions.

Throughout his 10 -year career, Winston was not afraid to put the ball in danger, because he was 154 career in career and 111 career interceptions.
Dart, last season with Ole Miss, led the dry as a percentage of completion (69.3%) and (4,279) yards with 29 affected and six interceptions.
The giants abandoned their second round choice in 2025 (n ° 34 in total), the choice of 2025 in the third round (n ° 99 in total) and their choice of third round in 2026 in exchange for overall choice n ° 25 of the Houston Texans to select Dart.
