Story summary

The New York Giants suffered a 24-21 loss to the Washington Commanders on Thursday, November 13, 2026, in a game that kept Washington in the playoff mix. The defeat followed a period of resilience for the Giants, who had recently ended a 13-game losing streak at the Linc by defeating the Philadelphia Eagles 19-11. During that victory, starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy suffered a hip injury and was replaced by Jameis Winston, who led a 76-yard go-ahead touchdown drive. Despite the injury, McCarthy stated on November 9 that he felt good and planned to play against Washington. However, the Giants were unable to hold a four-point lead in the final two minutes of the November 13 game after Jayden Daniels threw a 32-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs with 57 seconds remaining. The loss leaves the Giants with a 5-3-1 record, holding a two-game lead over the Commanders (3-5-1) for first place in the NFC East. The Giants now face a difficult stretch of the schedule to determine if they remain legitimate playoff contenders.

tRY IT NOW“You are thinking about plays that could’ve been the difference in the game,” Nabers said.
And the first game of 2027 might be the most important of all if the Cowboys can get enough defensive stops and wins that Week 17 in Dallas is what decides the NFC East.
Unsung hero New Jersey native Rasul Douglas came down with the game-clinching interception on a 50-50 ball against Malik Nabers before the Giants could get into range for the potential tying field goal.
Given a third life because the Giants offense couldn’t get enough first downs to run out the clock or the points to put the game away, Jayden Daniels connected on a 32-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs with 57 seconds remaining as the Commanders stole a 24-21 victory at MetLife Stadium.
Nabers said that he would welcome “a simple conversation” with Olsen, who played 14 years in the NFL, if the former tight end wants to reach out.
Two days after he suffered a hip pointer (deep bone bruise) that caused him to crumple to the ground throwing a warmup pass, miss a 14-play offensive series while getting treated in the locker room and limp through the final 16 minutes of a win against the Eagles, Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy skipped over all the “Will he or won’t he play?” drama and was a full participant in Tuesday’s practice.
The Giants were steadfast about not subtracting from their limited draft capital for a rental, though there is an argument to be made that surrendering a fifth- or sixth-round pick for a defensive tackle who could help the NFL’s No. 28-ranked rushing defense would have sent a message of belief in the team to the locker room and fan base.
The Giants will have one full practice Tuesday.
Winston’s game-saving cameo was important because the Giants were completely unable to run the ball without the injured duo of Cam Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy Jr. Will that prompt John Harbaugh and Joe Schoen to meet the Colts’ asking price of a first-round pick (or the multi-pick equivalent) for Jonathan Taylor before Tuesday?
“I got hit on one of the touchdowns and didn’t know that Jalen [Nailor] scored, but I could hear our Raiders fans,” Cousins added.
