Jayden Daniels throws three touchdowns as Commanders rally past Giants Thursday night
Key Points:
- The Washington Commanders defeated the New York Giants 24-21 in their Week 10 rematch, breaking a tie from their Week 5 meeting and gaining a crucial NFC East victory.
- Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy, making his first home start since a trade from Minnesota, threw for a career-high 293 yards despite a recent hip injury, but the Giants struggled to run out the clock in the fourth quarter.
- Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels threw three touchdowns and two interceptions, helping Washington stay within two games of the division-leading Giants and securing the tiebreaker after last month's tie.
- The Giants' attempts to pressure Washington with a unique hard count failed, and multiple punts late in the game gave the Commanders chances to maintain their lead.
- Washington will face the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night in Week 11, while the Giants will host the Jacksonville Jaguars the day before.
