On Sunday at Ford Field in Detroit, the New York Giants produced hopes for a win but couldn’t seal the deal, falling 34–27 in overtime to the Detroit Lions. New York jumped out to an early lead when rookie-receiver Wan’Dale Robinson reeled in a 39-yard touchdown grab from Jameis Winston. Later, Winston connected with Isaiah Hodgins on a 12-yard strike to cap another efficient drive. Winston finished with 357 passing yards and two touchdowns; Robinson hauled in nine receptions for 156 yards and one score.
However, the Giants’ defense surrendered key plays late. The Lions tied the game with a 59-yard field goal with 28 seconds left in regulation. In overtime, Detroit’s Jahmyr Gibbs broke loose on the first play for a 69-yard touchdown run, finishing with 264 yards from scrimmage and three total scores.
Once again the Giants Stumble! This game felt like a snapshot of the Giants’ season — flashes of potential, standout performances, and a story that just needs its finishing chapter.
