It was not easy, but the Washington Commanders got their third win of the season on Thursday Night Football against the New York Giants after wide receiver Stefon Diggs scored a 32-yard touchdown on Washington’s final offensive drive of the game.
“We kept fighting, and then the communication that we worked on throughout the week. They played a lot of zero. They kinda similar to our defense, which is kinda crazy,” Diggs said. “So, just some communication that we worked throughout the week and one of the plays that we just tried to execute and we ended up getting in the game.”
The touchdown drive came after their previous two drives ended in an interception from quarterback Jayden Daniels. Those were his first two interceptions of the season. Despite
the adversity, Diggs said Daniels kept his composure, as he is always the same player throughout a game no matter what happens.
“He’s gonna be the same kind of player he is in the beginning of the game and the end of the game,” Diggs said. “So, for me, it’s like, shit, things gonna happen, you know, good and bad. He isn’t gonna change. So, I mean, I can 100 percent tell you.”

After Diggs scored his touchdown, there was still nearly a minute left in the game. The Commanders only had a three-point lead and needed a stop on defense to secure the win. Cornerback Rasul Douglas delivered with his third interception of the season. Washington now has a mini-bye before their next game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football as they seek their fourth win of the year.
