Dart's confidence was palpable. After practice, he told reporters he wished for another session later in the day to keep the momentum going.
"I told Dabes (head coach Brian Daboll) earlier this week, after the first day, I was like, 'I wish we had two-a-days so we could practice again.' I just really look forward to the next opportunity that I have," Dart shared.
Dart has been working with the second- and third-team offense, behind Russell Wilson who is leading the first team. The rookie's development has been remarkable, particularly in his grasp of the game.
"I can definitely feel a difference in the first day to even today. Just that the game's starting to slow down a little bit, the more that I get comfortable with the plays and the system. So just trying to take advantage of the opportunities that I get. Trying to study late as much as I can," Dart explained.
With Monday bringing the Giants' first padded practice, all eyes will be on Dart as he seeks to continue his impressive run in training camp's second week.
