Jaxson Dart Is Shutting Down The Comparisons To Tim Tebow

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart has been making all sorts of headlines as of late.

The second-year NFL quarterback made headlines this weekend, for introducing U.S. President Donald Trump at a rally in New York.

Dart, 23, opened his speech with a "Go Big Blue" before saying "What an honor, what a privilege it is to be here."

President Trump made some comments, too.

"I'm looking at Jaxson," Trump said. "I'd like to know, is there any woman in the audience that thinks they can tackle that guy? Because I'd like to meet you. I'd like to shake your hand. I don't know. Jaxson, you think you can play against women, OK?"

"Don't get involved, Jaxson," Trump added. "Don't answer that question."

Dart ended up getting called out by one of his teammates, Abdul Carter, who was in disbelief over his quarterback attending a President Trump rally. However, things appear to be OK now.

"Me & JD6 are good! We spoke earlier as Men. Yall can keep yall narratives," he shared.

Dart, in other news, has shut down some Tim Tebow comparisons.

Dart responds to Tebow comparisons

Dart has been bulking up this offseason and he's drawn comparisons to the legendary Tim Tebow.

"I'm actually pretty similar from a weight standpoint," Dart said. "I'm just leaner."

Dart, though, made it clear that he won't be bulking up - and playing like - the legendary Tim Tebow.

"I'm not close to that. I'm not like Tim Tebow! I'm not like that," he declared.

The Giants will open the 2026 NFL regular season on Sunday night in Week 1, taking on the Dallas Cowboys.
