Big Blue View
As the New York Giants approach training camp, one of the biggest questions surrounding the team is not just how rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart will develop, but how three very different offensive coaches will work together. Big Blue View’s Chris Pflum examines whether Matt Nagy, Brian Callahan, and Greg Roman can form a productive partnership or become an example of too many voices in one room.
Be sure to read that, if you haven’t. Now, let’s check the headlines.
Twenty quarterbacks received at least one vote in a recent poll of league executive, coaches and scouts that assessed the NFL’s top QBs. Jaxson Dart wasn’t one of them.
The Giants’ second-year quarterback received no love in ESPN’s annual survey of the top 10 at each position in football, while even the likes of the Jaguars’ Trevor Lawrence, the Bucs’ Baker Mayfield and the Colts’ Daniel Jones got outside nods.
And every other NFC East quarterback was either ranked. So Dart not being in the conversation at all when it came to votes for top QBs entering 2026 is just noise, sure. But here’s betting Dart hears it and welcomes it as he takes the field and leads the Giants in a season in which Harbaugh’s team intends to shift the conversation and the standings.
Not one of the best. The very best. That is the way Kayvon Thibodeaux’s work ethic was described.
Thibodeaux is doing everything possible to excel heading into what might be his final season with the Giants. He is outworking everyone. “His play speed and effort has been by far the best of the group this offseason.” Kayvon says he’s on a mission.
But we’ll go with Tyler Nubin, a playmaker that has been searching for that much of two seasons as a Giant. He has the size and length teams look for in the secondary, but his instincts are what sets him apart. His study habits and understanding of opposing offenses should allow for Nubin to get to spaces where young players probably should not.
As a rookie, Nubin admits that he was thinking too much, and that slowed down his ability to react and attack. Last season, with the Giants’ defense struggling with consistency, Nubin was lost in fired DC Shane Bowen’s passive scheme. Harbaugh and Wilson will expect more from Nubin and Holland, and they won’t hesitate to move them around.
