Giants Announce Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo News on Monday

Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo quickly became fan favorites for the New York Giants during their 2025 rookie season. After New York started the year 0-3 with veteran Russell Wilson, Dart took over as the starting quarterback in Week 4 and led the Giants to their first win of the year against the Los Angeles Chargers. Dealing with concussions throughout the season, the Corner Canyon High School graduate finished with 2,272 passing yards and 15 touchdown passes while completing 63.7% of his passes.

Skattebo, a running back known for his rugged running style, was able to transition his play style to the NFL, rushing for 410 yards on 101 carries and scoring five touchdowns in eight games. The Rio Linda High School graduate suffered a season-ending injury in Week 8 when he dislocated his ankle, ruptured a ligament and fractured his fibula.

After a tough 2025 season in which New York finished last in the NFC East with a 4-13 record, the rookie duo from last season provides hope for fans and the organization. On Monday, the Giants organization announced that Dart and Skattebo will both appear at the 2026 Town Hall, with the two headlining the social media promotion for the event.

Alongside the quarterback and running back duo, General Manager Joe Schoen, Head Coach John Harbaugh and members of the 2026 rookie class will appear at the event. The event will be hosted by Bob Papa, Nate Burleson and Shaun O'Hara. The event will also include an exclusive reveal of the upcoming 40th anniversary celebration of Super Bowl XXI, which will feature Phil Simms and Carl Banks. The event will start at 7 p.m. ET.

“Come hear from Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo & more,” the Giants wrote on X. “At Town Hall tonight at 7 p.m.!”
