Jermaine Eluemunor doesn’t consider himself an avid college football fan. One player became appointment viewing for him last year, though — Jaxson Dart.
Eluemunor now gets to see Dart every day with the Giants. And there is just something about his personality and style of play that is captivating.
“I don’t really watch college football like that, but I was kind of intrigued by Dart when he was at Ole Miss. I wanted to see what he could do,” Eluemunor said Monday. “He had like a certain aura about him. It kind of made me want to watch him play, and the games I did see him play, it was just phenomenal reps. He’s a tough guy, sometimes he has to take hits when he’s running downfield, but he gets back up and gets all hyped up. And as an offensive lineman, you build off that, when you see your quarterback running down field and taking a hit and getting back up and acting like it wasn’t really anything when you know he probably felt it.”
On the field, Dart — whom the Giants traded back into the first round to draft — has given plenty of reasons for optimism.
