Jayden Daniels and Commanders settle for 27-27 tie with Giants after botching final play of OT
- Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels returned from a two-week left elbow injury on Sunday, Oct. 11, 2026, but his team settled for a 27-27 tie against the New York Giants at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland.
- After Daniels rushed for two touchdowns and threw for 199 yards, Washington held a 27-13 lead before the Giants rallied from a 14-point deficit to force overtime. Jameis Winston led New York's furious comeback with 326 yards passing and three TDs.
- Winston targeted Malik Nabers for 121 yards and one TD, while Isaiah Likely caught 11 passes for 94 yards and two scores. Terry McLaurin returned from a hamstring injury with four catches for 62 yards for Washington.
- With 12 seconds remaining in overtime and the Commanders in field goal range, Daniels scrambled instead of spiking the ball, allowing time to expire and denying Washington a potential winning field goal. The game ended 27-27.
- The 1-3-1 Commanders visit the San Francisco 49ers on Monday, Oct. 19, while the 3-1-1 Giants host the New Orleans Saints next Sunday, seeking to maintain their lead atop the NFC East.
