New York quarterback Jameis Winston completed 33 of 54 passes for 326 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in the Giants’ 27-27 overtime tie at Washington on October 11. He was sacked twice, ran five times for 27 yards, and finished with a 96.7 passer rating. The Giants (3-1-1) host the New Orleans Saints at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, October 18, at 1 p.m. EDT.
How the second-half rally unfolded
Washington led 19-6 late in the third quarter before Winston found Isaiah Likely for a 3-yard touchdown with 44 seconds left in the period. In the fourth he hit Likely again for 17 yards; the play was first ruled a fumble at the 1 that went for a touchback, then reversed to a touchdown after replay. With 1:43 left he connected with Malik Nabers for another 17-yard score that tied the game at 27.
Likely finished with 11 catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns. Nabers had 11 catches for 121 yards and the tying score on 20 targets. New York missed a field goal and lost a fumble in overtime.
