Giants Stun Eagles 34-17 on Thursday Night as Rookies Drive Upset

Rookie breakouts reframed New York’s outlook, casting doubt on Philadelphia’s form.

Overview

  • The victory ended New York’s eight-game divisional drought and produced its first Thursday-night win in roughly a decade.
  • Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart threw a touchdown to Wan'Dale Robinson, ran for another, and finished with 195 passing yards in his second win in three starts.
  • Rookie running back Cameron Skattebo powered the offense with three rushing touchdowns and 98 yards on 19 carries.
  • Dart was evaluated for a possible concussion after a late hit, and head coach Brian Daboll said he apologized to the team doctor for a heated sideline exchange.
  • Philadelphia dropped to 4-2 after a scoreless second half that included a Jalen Hurts interception, Saquon Barkley was limited to 58 rushing yards, and Washington can pull level in the NFC East.
