Jaxson Dart vs Will Levis: The Full Breakdown

Deciding between Jaxson Dart and Will Levis is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The New York Giants quarterback put up 17.3 PPG in 2025 over 14 games; Will Levis of the Tennessee Titans averaged 13.2 in 14. A 4.1-point margin that could shift on any given week.

The per-game difference of 4.1 points favors Jaxson Dart, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one quarterback to the other.

Jaxson Dart offers meaningful rushing upside with 487 yards on the ground in 2025, which separates his floor from a pocket passer like Will Levis (2780 passing yards, 17 touchdowns). In games where the passing matchup looks ugly, that rushing production can be the entire difference on a start/sit call.

Bye weeks matter for roster construction: Jaxson Dart sits Week 8 while Will Levis is off Week 5. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Jaxson Dart is a buy in trades where the other manager is chasing upside at a different position. Will Levis is a hold unless you can flip him for a positional upgrade elsewhere on your roster. Dynasty outlook: Jaxson Dart (age 23) is in the early stages of his career with 5+ years of starter-caliber upside. His dynasty value is rising. Will Levis (age 27) is in his prime window.
