Leave it to Jameis Winston to allow Thursday night's game to go to the dogs.

The New York Giants veteran backup quarterback, who now doubles as something of a short-yardage specialist, tried to draw the Washington Commanders offside with 3:27 remaining in the game when the NFC East-leading Giants faced a fourth-and-1 from their own 11-yard line.

Lined up in a bunched formation, Winston began yelling out signals, but Washington held its ground. When that didn't work, the No. 1 pick of the 2015 NFL Draft invoked the Baha Men with this cadence: "Who let the dogs out?Who, who, who, who, who?" ... the latter portion naturally sounding like barking.

But the Commanders didn't bite, and the Giants had to punt.

Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels threw a seemingly crucial interception four plays later, but the Giants went three-and-out on the subsequent drive − that punt proving costly, as the Commanders scored what turned out to be the winning touchdown of what turned out to be a 24-21 triumph, one that likely saved their season, on the following possession.
