Good morning, New York Giants fans!
When he isn’t pressured, Dart has put up some impressive numbers. He has completed 67.8 percent of his passes with four touchdowns, zero interceptions and a 101.4 passer rating when not pressured, compared to a 46.2 completion percentage, four touchdowns, three interceptions and a 72.4 passer rating when he is pressured.

Following his career, seeing the reception numbers, how explosive he is with the ball in his hands and the run after catch — that’s the word to describe him. He’s a great worker and he’s around late, so I’m excited to have him.”
It took Lawrence and a lot of New York’s players by surprise that Banks, who is in the team facility on a fairly regular basis, chose his podcast as the platform to air the criticism.
