The Washington Commanders and New York Giants finished level at 27–27 after both teams wasted opportunities in overtime. Washington’s final possession reached field-goal range, but the clock expired before the side could attempt a winning kick.
Jayden Daniels scrambled with twelve seconds remaining and no timeouts available, then went down without gaining ground. Earlier, Daron Payne had stripped the ball from Cam Skattebo when the Giants were themselves close to a potential winning field goal.
New York had recovered from a two-touchdown fourth-quarter deficit under Jameis Winston. The dramatic finish therefore combined a successful comeback with costly late decisions, leaving both teams with a tie instead of converting their final openings into the victory either had briefly seemed ready to claim.
