The chosen delegates will attend the 62nd Annual Washington Week from March 2-9, 2024, where they will have the opportunity to meet national lawmakers and policymakers.

SUMMARY: Rookie first-round pick Jaxson Dart made his preseason debut for the New York Giants in a 34-25 win over the Buffalo Bills, showing promise with 154 passing yards, a touchdown, and mobility. Dart led three scoring drives but noted room for improvement, especially on third-down conversions. Veteran Russell Wilson also played efficiently. Coach Brian Daboll praised Dart’s poise and confidence. The Giants, rebuilding after a poor season, hope Dart will be their future quarterback alongside Wilson. The Bills rested MVP Josh Allen, with backups Mitch Trubisky and Mike White contributing. Both teams prepare for upcoming joint practices and games.
