Out of the mouths of babes … comes an ethos to adopt right about now.
Jaxson Dart, the 22-year-old who has thus far hit all the right notes, inadvertently revealed how self-aware he is when he stated “I’m just shifting my perspective’’ immediately after the Giants played, and won, their preseason finale. Indeed, the assessment and experimental portion of the summer is over and done with. Dart is new at this but savvy enough to recognize a redirection of focus is at hand.
It is his time to recede into the background. The offense is in the hands of Russell Wilson now. The veteran gets the spotlight. Center stage. The rookie dutifully moves behind the curtain. The season is fast approaching and Wilson gets the ball first.
How long he gets to handle it out of the shotgun snap remains to be seen. That uncertainty is not what the Giants are about right now as they try, once again, to shake free from the insidious, spiraling tornado of losing that has tossed this franchise around like a rag doll for far too long.
