Giants are giving Jaxson Dart the Patrick Mahomes treatment ... but for how long?

The New York Giants have taken a similar approach to developing Jaxson Dart as the Kansas City Chiefs did with Patrick Mahomes, placing the young quarterback in a mentorship role behind their established starter, Russell Wilson. The plan is for Dart to learn and grow behind Wilson, much like Mahomes did under the tutelage of Alex Smith in Kansas City. However, the Giants' patience will be tested as Dart's talent and potential may tempt them to accelerate his development. The organization must balance the long-term benefits of allowing Dart to learn at his own pace with the short-term pressures to get him on the field and capitalize on his abilities. The success of this strategy will depend on the Giants' commitment to player development, the progress Dart makes, and the team's performance with Wilson at the helm. The decision to give Dart the "Patrick Mahomes treatment" could pay dividends in the future, but the Giants must be prepared to stick with the plan for as long as necessary.
