Stefon Diggs' late touchdown secured a tense 24-21 Washington Commanders win over the New York Giants on Thursday, after Cam Skattebo had rushed for two touchdowns for New York. Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, who had not thrown an interception all season, threw two on consecutive drives while seeking a comeback in a wild fourth quarter, before finding veteran receiver Diggs with a minute remaining for the go-ahead score. Daniels finished with 249 passing yards and three touchdowns, with Antonio Williams and Ben Sinnott also reaching the end zone for Washington.

The Giants' JJ McCarthy threw for 293 yards and a touchdown to Isaiah Likely, while veteran backup Jameis Winston also took the field for several quarterback sneaks. Skattebo, who had missed last week with a hamstring injury, made several powerful early runs and scored with a backflip celebration, after New York kicker Dominic Zavada missed a 33-yard field goal in a scoreless first quarter. Washington's Drew Stevens converted a 46-yard field goal before the lead swung repeatedly, with Williams running in a 31-yard touchdown and Likely taking a 66-yard pass from McCarthy to restore New York's advantage.S1

Daniels threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter, the first to Jevon Holland at the pylon and the second, barely three minutes later, to Ar'Darius Washington, which made the late comeback harder. Diggs said the quarterback never lost his composure, while the Giants' loss prevented New York from pulling clear in the NFC East. The Giants remain top on 5-3-1, closely trailed by the Dallas Cowboys (4-5) and Washington, who moved to 3-5-1.S1
