Jaxson Dart ranks 21st among NFL quarterbacks in new statistical evaluation
Summary

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart earned a 100 grade in the newly released QBI metric, placing him 21st among all NFL starters. This score ties him with Jalen Hurts of the Philadelphia Eagles and Jared Goff of the Detroit Lions. Among the 2025 rookie class, Dart ranks second behind Tyler Shough, who received a 103 grade. The QBI metric accounts for play-by-play context, including pressures, sacks, drops, and receiver quality to isolate quarterback play. While Dart led rookie quarterbacks in previous tier rankings, analysts note he remains more volatile than Shough, who has shown greater structural consistency. Reports from training camp suggest the Giants are working to refine their offense to better suit Dart's development in his second season.
