Former Utah high school quarterback Jaxson Dart introduced President Donald Trump on Friday ahead of a campaign rally for GOP Rep. Mike Lawler at Rockland Community College in Suffern, New York.
The popular New York Giants quarterback began by starting a brief “go big blue†chant with the crowd before introducing the president.
“I’m grateful, I’m honored, I’m pleasured to introduce the 45th and 47th president of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump,†Dart said as the song “God Bless the USA†began playing and Trump walked onto the stage.
The president returned the favor, calling the Utah prep star a future “Hall of Famer†as he lauded the young quarterback’s talent.
“I want to thank Jaxson Dart. This is going to be a future Hall of Famer in my book. Thank you. A lot of talent,†Trump said.
Lawler, who won the 2022 and 2024 elections for the 17th Congressional District in New York, looks to keep his seat in November when elections will be held. Although, the New York politician occasionally disagrees with Trump, per City & State, the president’s presence at the rally was a positive sign for Lawler.
Utah to New York
Dart played quarterback in high school for Roy High School and Corner Canyon, located in Draper, before starting his college career first at USC. Following a season with the Trojans, Dart transferred to Ole Miss to play for Lane Kiffin from 2022 to 2024 before being drafted by the New York Giants 25th overall.
The quarterback looks poised to lead the Giants after his impressive rookie season where he recorded more than 2,000 passing yards and 450 rushing yards along with 15 plus passing touchdowns and more than nine rushing touchdowns, according to Giants Wire.
