Jaxson Dart took another step Saturday night toward grabbing the Giants’ starting quarterback job if Russell Wilson falters early this regular season. Dart, 22, took first-team snaps in a game for the first time as a Giant — then led the second-string offense on two consecutive touchdown drives — in a primetime preseason 31-12 win against the Jets at MetLife Stadium.

Having finished the first half with a three-and-out while (notably) playing with the starters, Dart lined up for second down at the Jets’ 20-yard line early in the second half. Then he spotted a wide-open Greg Dulcich sprinting over the middle — and fired the ball to him for a touchdown.

Wilson showed off his patented moon ball with his first pass Saturday. A deep bomb to Beaux Collins in stride for an 80-yard pass with Collins tackled at the Jets’ 1-yard line. Two plays later, Devin Singletary scored on a 1-yard rush to complete a 93-yard drive.
