You are The Boy of Summer, Jaxson Dart, you have infused a fan base with hope, and in the preseason finale against the Patriots on Thursday night at MetLife Stadium you get this last chance to leave them wanting more until. This is your team and your town.

Don’t expect to see the Giants’ starters for long — if at all — on Thursday night at MetLife Stadium in the preseason finale against the Patriots. Not only was the second preseason game only five days earlier, but head coach Brian Daboll emphasized Tuesday that the staff still has crucial evaluations to make before roster cuts.

However, a fantastic performance against the Patriots could improve his chances of taking over later in the regular season if Van Roten struggles at any point.
