How Giants plan for Jaxson Dart offense to live in 'different worlds'

New York Giants coach John Harbaugh believes Jaxson Dart, his quarterback, has plenty of room to grow before coming anywhere close to the ceiling within his game. The man leading that charge is Matt Nagy, who will run the offense being built from the ground up with Harbaugh's new offensive coordinator at the forefront as he goes from coaching Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City to Dart back home in New Jersey. What does want from Dart and Co.

on that side of the ball? Here's what Harbaugh had to say last week at the NFL Annual Meeting in Phoenix, a point he will surely hammer home as the coaches welcome the players back to the facility for the first time for Tuesday's start of the voluntary offseason program. "Elegant enough to handle all the complicated things that go with attacking defenses nowadays," Harbaugh said.

"But simple enough for the players to operate it in action, in battle, in the heat of battle, in a real effective way. " They aren’t chasing myths and ghosts at quarterback with Dart in the fold; rather, there is a real purpose with reestablishing success in 2026 under Harbaugh on their minds. There's no questioning Dart as the centerpiece of the Giants ' offense right now.

That was the case when the season ended, and that is the premise by which the Giants are operating as they remake the roster and the identity of this team. The Harbaugh era will welcome a bit of a culture shock in terms of how the offense will operate. No one is looking to change Dart - if anything, the Giants hope to capitalize on his skill set and will build the playbook around that - but in terms of how the Giants attack schematically, it's going to be a reset.
