The Giants will take the field in front of their home crowd at MetLife Stadium for the first time on Saturday as they face off against the Jets.

In last week’s preseason opener, the Giants traveled to Orchard Park, where they defeated the Buffalo Bills, 34-25. Meanwhile, the Jets got their preseason started with a 30-10 road victory over the Green Bay Packers.

The two teams met for back-to-back joint practices earlier this week, with Tuesday’s session taking place in Florham Park and Wednesday’s in East Rutherford.

Coach Brian Daboll did not indicate how long the starters would play, if at all, in the second preseason game following two days of joint practices.

Nonetheless, here are five players to watch this Saturday.

Russell Wilson didn’t play much in the preseason opener. The veteran quarterback took the field for the team’s first drive and led the offense into field goal range, setting up Graham Gano’s 53-yard kick to get the Giants on the board. Wilson completed six of seven passes for 28 yards on the drive as he continued to show the accuracy we’ve seen all summer from the 36-year-old.

“I thought we did a good job,” Wilson said after the game. “I thought our consistency throughout the whole game made some plays. I thought it was good to be out there, just be with the fellas and obviously to be a New York Giant, what a blessing it is to lead these guys and be a part of that. I think that every week we just want to keep getting better. It’s so funny because I think these preseason games mean so much, just being able to get out there and the culture in the locker room to pregame warmups, to the whole rhythm of how we do that and how we do that really well. And I thought we did a great job of that, even on the sideline, game on the line, just everybody was in tune.”

It remains to be seen how much Wilson and the rest of the starters will play in Saturday’s game against the Jets, especially after two days of joint practices. Whether he’s out there for one series, one quarter or more, look for Wilson to continue to develop chemistry with his pass-catchers and offensive line as we inch closer to the start of the season.

While Wilson made his Giants debut in last week’s win over the Bills, Jaxson Dart made his NFL debut in Buffalo. The rookie made a strong first impression as he completed 12 of 19 passes for 154 yards and a touchdown, which earned him a passer rating of 106.0. He also led the team with 24 rush yards on three attempts (8.0 avg.). The touchdown pass came on a beautiful throw where he placed the ball perfectly in front of wide receiver Lil’Jordan Humphrey, hitting the veteran in stride as he crossed the goal line. While Dart’s numbers were impressive, the way he operated the offense and played with confidence left everyone feeling encouraged about the rookie quarterback’s first game.

“Just about what I thought he would do,” Daboll said about Dart’s performance after the game. “Efficient, effective, aggressive, confident in the pocket. Some stuff we can work on, but he’s doing good.

“Look, there’s things he can be better at, but we missed some opportunities on third down, some drops that would have even been better for him and for us. But he’s a confident young player. He’s improved since he’s been here. Still have a long way to go, but I enjoy working with him. I like his demeanor on the sideline. He sees the game well.”

With only two games remaining until the start of the regular season, Dart will likely get another extended look this weekend. Look for the rookie quarterback to soak up as many game reps as he can this weekend as he continues his development.

“I’m just trying to take advantage of the opportunities that I get, trying to watch the film as much as I can to go into depth and just keep learning,” Dart told the media Wednesday.
