Overview
- FanDuel lists New York as a 5.5-point underdog, while a Big Blue View analysis cites DraftKings at Washington -7.5 with a 45.5 total.
- Washington will not have starting right guard Sam Cosmi as he recovers from a torn ACL, with veteran Nick Allegretti expected to start.
- Analysts highlight the Commanders’ right side, with rookie tackle Josh Conerly next to Allegretti, as a pressure point for Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and No. 3 pick Abdul Carter.
- Russell Wilson begins his Giants tenure as the starting quarterback after an offseason overhaul aimed at raising the offense’s floor.
- Left tackle Andrew Thomas’ status remains uncertain, and game plans center on containing Jayden Daniels after Washington’s 28.5 points per game and top scrambling output last season.
