Summary
Matt Nagy said Jaxson Dart has grown noticeably over the past one to two weeks, with his composure, confidence and command of the offense improving almost daily.
Miami stood out as a turning point, Nagy said, because Dart handled a new defense and different looks while executing well.
Two good games have also given the Giants more chances to work through in-game adjustments, even as Nagy said the play-caller faces heavy pressure to put the young quarterback in favorable situations.
Nagy said he saw Dart's "it factor" within two weeks of OTAs, but added the 23-year-old still must carry that maturity and competitiveness into the regular season over more than one year.
