New York Giants Quarterback Jaxson Dart Gets Visit From Girlfriend Marissa Ayers at Practice

In this story:
Jaxson Dart has become one of the brightest rays of hope for the New York Giants. That says a lot, because after a 4-13 season, this team needs something to make them think better days are on the way. They have it in Dart and new head coach John Harbaugh.
Dart is entering his second season with the team. During his rookie season, he appeared in 14 games with 12 starts, which is a big responsibility for a rookie. During those games, he recorded 2,272 passing yards and 15 passing touchdowns against five interceptions, according to NFL research. Dart also had 487 rushing yards with nine rushing touchdowns.
Those numbers are good enough to say that Dart is New York City royalty now. As it turns out, Dart already has his queen.

New York Giants Quarterback Jaxson Dart Gets a Visit From Girlfriend Marissa Ayers at Practice
We have yet to see Taylor Swift show up at one of Travis Kelce's practices, but that's not stopping other wives and girlfriends of players from visiting their guys.
On Monday, Dart's girlfriend, influencer and content creator Marissa Ayers, was spotted on the field during the team's training camp. Dart was back in East Rutherford NJ with the Giants after the team spent 11 days at The Greenbrier resort in West Virginia.
Dart greeted Ayers as the team wrapped up practice, according to a report and exclusive photos from the New York Post.
As practice wrapped up, Dart spent time with Ayers relaxing on the field. According to the New York Post, the two appeared to be enjoying their reunion, chatting and smiling together after the workout.

Ayers was dressed casually on the field. She donned a short jean skirt, white tank top, black belt, black bag, black heels and sunglasses. The moment was also a reunion of sorts, since the two had spent some time apart during the team's training camp sessions which were held away from the New York City area.
Inside Dart and Ayers Relationship That's Been Growing
Dart and Ayers have been linked since the fall of 2025. The two first went public with their relationship publicly on social media in January.
Since then, they've been spotted together at several high-profile events, including the Kentucky Derby, the World Cup and Miami Swim Week. Ayers has also gone the extra mile to visit Dart even when his schedule is super busy with football.

One example is when at the end of July, Ayers surprised Dart by taking a plane from Charleston to New York at 4 a.m. to see him. The two spent part of his lunch break together. She shared the experience in a TikTok video.
So, Dart is back in New York for the remainder of the summer. That's good news for both his girlfriend and the Giants franchise that's ready to see him back in action.
