Jayden Daniels and Commanders Rally to Stun the Giants 24-21 and Keep Their Hopes Alive Another Week
Stefon Diggs finished with six catches for 83 yards as Washington overcame two turnovers and a 399-340 deficit in total offense.
On Thursday, the Washington Commanders rallied to defeat the New York Giants 24-21 after wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught a 32-yard touchdown pass with 57 seconds remaining.
Entering Thursday with a 2.5-game division lead, the Giants aimed to bury the Commanders , but the teams traded the lead four times in an entertaining second half.
Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels threw three touchdowns despite two fourth-quarter interceptions, while Giants tight end Isaiah Likely recorded 127 yards and a 66-yard score that briefly gave New York the lead.
Washington cornerback Rasul Douglas sealed the victory with an interception on the Giants' final drive, helping stave off questions about coach Dan Quinn's future.
With this win, Washington now owns the tiebreaker over New York in the NFC East race, while the Giants prepare to host the Jacksonville Jaguars on November 22.
