“Guys cling to him,” Brown told the media ( h/t Jared Schwartz of The New York Post ). “He’s got a kind of swagger and aura and element to him.

However, recently, there have been growing calls for the team to give the job to rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, whom the Giants drafted out of Ole Miss this past April.

Dart impressed during Saturday night’s second preseason game against the Jets.

Trade talks are expected to pick up around the league as teams move toward next Tuesday's deadline to set their 53-man rosters and one player whose name has come up as a possible trade target is Giants quarterback Jameis Winston.

The Dallas Cowboys' 31-13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens at AT&T Stadium has put Brian Schottenheimer in quite a bind when it comes to quarterback Joe Milton.

The plan is for him to be a backup for Wilson this season and next season when Dart presumably takes over.
