It seems like the New York Giants are committed to starting veteran Russell Wilson when the season kicks off in September, but it also seems like they're willing to take a chance on rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, as evidenced by the strategic use of Dart during their first two preseason games. With one more preseason game this week against the New England Patriots, Dart will have another chance to prove his value to the team and determine his spot on the depth chart. Both the Giants and Pats are 2-0 heading into week 3 of the preseason, they meet on Thursday at Met Life Stadium for one last exhibition game before the season begins.

Many NFL preseason games are broadcast on local channels, so if you're looking to catch an in-market game, it may be as simple as turning on your TV (or setting up a digital TV antenna). If you want to watch out-of-market games, a $7/month subscription to NFL+ will get you access to NFL Network, which will have every out-of-market game in the preseason. The downside of NFL+? When it comes to the regular season, it's a much less helpful option because there are far fewer NFL Network games during the regular season.
