Jaxson Dart

In the lead-up to New York’s Week 9 head-to-head against the 49ers, San Francisco’s defensive coordinator couldn’t help praising the Giants’ new quarterback, ending his quote with a prediction that Jaxson Dart would “be special.” Those forecasts — just like Dart’s accuracy — were spot-on during Nov. 2, 2025’s matchup, as the first-year star mixed in 24-yard touchdown passes with elusive, six-yard scoring runs to illustrate his versatility. The 49ers’ postseason-caliber mettle won out, but even in a 34-24 defeat, Dart was extraordinary, passing for 191 yards (on 24-of-33) and two touchdowns, complemented by eight carries, 56 yards, and an additional score.
