Mississippi’s Jaxson Dart absolutely sparkled in his debut for the New York Giants. And he can thank his sister’s jewelry collection for that. The first-round quarterback showed up for his news conference after his first practice of rookie minicamp Friday wearing a dazzling necklace that featured shiny, diamondlike-filled hearts. Dart said it was his little sister’s necklace and he liked it so he wore it before Mississippi’s bowl game, and it has been good luck for him ever since. At the Gator Bowl in January, Dart was selected the MVP after leading Ole Miss to a 52-20 thrashing of Duke while wearing the necklace.
