The New York Giants will have their first rematch of the 2026 season when they meet the Washington Commanders on Thursday Night Football in Week 10.
The Giants come into the game riding a 2-game win streak with victories over the Houston Texans and Philadelphia Eagles, which have propelled them to a 5-2-1 record on the season. The Commanders, meanwhile are coming off of a loss to the Los Angeles Rams and are carrying a 2-5-1 record on the year.
That tie in each of their records is, of course, with
each other.
The Giants tied the Commanders on the road back in Week 5 when Cam Skattebo fumbled with the Giants in position to win in overtime, but the Giants were bailed out by Washington’s clock (mis)management.
But the Giants and Commanders aren’t exactly the same teams that faced off in Week 5. This time, the Giants have J.J. McCarthy as their starting quarterback, adding much-needed mobility to the quarterback position as well as a big arm to generate explosive plays through the air. And while the Giants are down LB Tremaine Edmunds, they’re getting RB Cam Skattebo back from injury.
Jayden Daniels, meanwhile, has been one of the cleanest quarterbacks in the NFL, with just one turnover since returning from injury. However, the Commanders are also down starting defensive tackles DaRon Payne and Javon Kinlaw, as well as wide receiver Terry McLaurin and RB Bill Crosky-Merritt.
The Giants are just 1.5-point favorites at home, per FanDuel.
