Dart was accompanied by his new Giants teammate, native Kentuckian Wan’Dale Robinson, a player who Dart hopes to make many a connection with on the field in the future.
The social media post is from Friday during the Kentucky Oaks, which for three-year old fillies, an event where the attendees wear pink.
“I love coming home,” Robinson said, via Sportskeeda. “The people of Kentucky — it speaks for itself. So anytime I get a chance to come back and see everybody, and see some new faces, I’m always down for it.'”
Robinson, who hails from Franfort, was the Giants’ second round pick in 2022 (43rd overall) out of Kentucky where he was a second-team All-SEC selection in 2021.
Dart was the 25th overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft out of Ole Miss by the Giants, who traded back into the first round to select him.
