Giants Name Jaxson Dart QB1; Wilson to Stay

The New York Giants benched veteran Russell Wilson after an 0-3 start and named rookie Jaxson Dart the Week 4 starter. Coach Brian Daboll said Dart will take over as QB1 while Wilson is expected to serve as the backup and called Wilson “a pro.” Wilson, 36, a 10-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion, acknowledged the move, saying “I’m not done,” pointing to a 450-yard, three-touchdown game in Dallas amid uneven performances including two interceptions in a 22-9 loss to the Chiefs. Wilson said he will remain with the team, help prepare Dart, and will not request a trade or release. He signed a one-year, $10.5 million deal with the Giants in March, and said he will stay ready and fight to contribute while the front office could still consider offers.
