McCarthy's first start opens playbook; Nagy compares skill set to Jaxson Dart

Giants QB making his first start in place of Jameis Winston against the Texans' third-ranked run defense. Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy indicated McCarthy's skill set is 'very similar to Jaxson Dart,' which will allow the Giants to restore a significant portion of the playbook that was shelved when Dart was injured. Expect increased zone-read, rollouts, and option plays that leverage McCarthy's legs and athleticism.
