The New York Post outlined the Giants’ 27‑27 draw with Washington on Sunday, pointing to a disputed pass‑interference call involving Malik Nabers and a struggling run game.
Nabers attempted to draw a penalty on Rasul Douglas late in the first half, leapt for the ball and failed to secure it inside the five‑yard line, then appealed to the official without success. The Post said the Giants managed only 26 rushing yards on 2.2 yards per carry in the first half, forcing a pass‑heavy approach after halftime.
Defensive adjustments were also highlighted: safety Tyler Nubin lost his starting role, was briefly replaced by Jason Pinnock, then regained it before exiting with a neck injury, while cornerback Deonte Banks received praise for his play.
