The New York Giants were defeated, 21-18, by the Washington Commanders at Northwest Stadium on Sunday.

The Giants fall to 0-2 in a hard-fought loss to the division rivals. New York felt the effects of an injury to Graham Gano as they were unable to convert any of their two-point conversions. With this loss, the Giants are now last in the NFC East.

Giants QB Daniel Jones, after a rough Week 1 went a respectable 16 of 28 for 178 yards and two touchdown passes, but it wasn’t enough. 

On a positive note, Malik Nabers, their first-round pick in 2024 looked good yet again. 

There were some rookie struggles as Nabers had two drops on the day, one of them being a game-losing drop coming on the last drive in the fourth quarter. However, outside of that, he looked nothing but exceptional.

The LSU product finished with 10 catches for 127 yards and a touchdown. He showcased all the reasons why he was the sixth overall pick as he was exceptional after the catch.
