Jameis Winston finished 33 of 54 for 326 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions as New York scored 24 points after halftime. Malik Nabers caught 11 passes for 121 yards and a score, while Isaiah Likely hauled in 11 for 94 yards and two touchdowns.
Cam Skattebo lost a fumble in overtime that ended a potential game-winning drive, and the Commanders let the clock expire in field-goal range.
Jason Pinnock (concussion) and Devin Singletary were among the inactives. Chauncey Golston (neck) was placed on injured reserve (IR) and did not travel.
Here’s a look at the snap counts from New York’s
Week 5 overtime tie against the Commanders.

Recently acquired backup quarterback J.J. McCarthy made his Giants debut and took five snaps, nearly all of them ending in disaster. Each time he took the field, Washington knew an RPO or designed quarterback run was coming, and held him to two yards on two carries.
Swing tackle Marcus Mbow took 45 snaps after replacing Jermaine Eluemunor (calf), while center John Michael Schmitz, who has been benched in favor of Bryan Hudson, was limited to four special teams snaps.
Linebacker Jihad Ward also made his Giants return with 23 defensive snaps and four special teams snaps.
