The New York Giants entered the Jaxson Dart era of football in East Rutherford when they drafted him in the first round. That was never in doubt, but on Friday, pen hit paper to ensure Dart would stick around for the long haul.

The New York Giants selected Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart as the 25th overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft in Green Bay last month. The selection is seen as the possible end of the Giants' years-long search for their next franchise quarterback.

New York Giants first-round draft pick Jaxson Dart signed his four-year, $17 million rookie contract on Friday. Multiple media outlets reported that Dart's signing bonus was just shy of $9 million. The Giants selected the Ole Miss quarterback with the 25th overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft after swinging a trade with the Houston Texans.
