Ran Carthon once spent hours alongside Brian Callahan combing through five years’ worth of the coach’s old quarterback evaluations and pre-draft rankings.
So, Carthon, who was the Titans general manager when Callahan was hired as head coach, is uniquely qualified to answer this question: Is dual-threat Jaxson Dart the kind of quarterback that Callahan — the new Giants quarterbacks coach — favors?
“Jaxson Dart is definitely his kind of guy,” Carthon, a CBS Sports NFL analyst, told The Post. “Cally is going to allow him to have a voice. He will respect the quarterback to the point of, ‘Tell me what you like.’ Jaxson won’t be making any decisions, but if you are a quarterback, you want to feel empowered — that you are being heard.”
Callahan was fired last October after a 4-19 record as Titans head coach. He is a quarterbacks coach for the first time since 2018, before his five-year stint as a non-play-calling offensive coordinator for the Bengals.
