The New York Giants (0-2) fell short, 30-29, to the Washington Football Team (1-1) at FedExField on Thursday night in a game defined by lead changes and missed opportunities.
The Giants were leading 29-27 with two minutes left to play and the Football Team had the ball. Taylor Heinicke drove Washington down the field to set up a 48-yard field goal by Dustin Hopkins. But an offsides penalty on the Giants made it 43 yards and Hopkins converted the kick to secure a 30-29 victory as time expired.
Despite starting on their own 21-yard line, the Giants were able to get off to a strong start on their opening drive.
