That means an emphasis on playing under center to facilitate what's expected to be a run-heavy attack. That's a major adjustment for Dart, who was in the shotgun on 79.9 percent of his snaps as a rookie.

Dart faces major scheme shift to under-center, run-heavy offense; early camp disjointed.

Dart is transitioning from a college-style, shotgun-heavy offense (79.9% of snaps) under former coach Brian Daboll to a run-heavy, under-center scheme under new coach John Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Matt Nagy. This represents a major adjustment; for context, Ravens QB Lamar Jackson operates under center on only 32.9% of snaps. Dart must now turn his back to the defense more and process more reads than in the RPO-heavy system he ran as a rookie, and the offense has looked disjointed early in camp.
