The New York Giants watched a chance to seize control of the NFC East slip away Thursday night at MetLife Stadium, falling to the Washington Commanders, 24-21, and dropping to 5-3-1.
J.J. McCarthy completed 23 of 36 passes for 293 yards and a touchdown, but Rasul Douglas intercepted his final throw with the game on the line. Cam Skattebo rushed for 78 yards and two touchdowns, and Isaiah Likely caught nine passes for 127 yards, including a 66-yard score that helped New York take a 21-17 lead.
That advantage lasted only until Stefon Diggs hauled in a 32-yard touchdown with 57 seconds remaining, capping a sequence that turned a potential statement win into a painful late collapse.
Malik Harrison (groin) was among the inactives.
Here’s a look at the snap counts from New York’s Week 10 loss to the Commanders.
After being listed as inactive for the first five games of the season, rookie defensive tackle Bobby Jamison-Travis has seen his workload steadily increase. In Sunday's loss to the Commanders, he took 23 defensive snaps (33 percent), which is the second-highest total of his young career (24 snaps vs. Houston Texans). He'll likely continue to see his role grow as his run defense improves.
Fullback Patrick Ricard took just 13 snaps on Sunday as the Giants moved away from their traditional heavy formation despite weather conditions that called for it.
Kicker Dominic Zvada was on the field for eight snaps, and it's remarkable how much damage can be done in so few snaps.
