Giants-Lions: 5 plays that stood out in Giants’ loss to Detroit

The New York Giants lost their first preseason game of the season to the Detroit Lions. Despite a 13-3 lead at halftime, the Giants fell to the Lions, 21-16.

These types of come-from-behind losses follow a similar script. The Giants intercepted Lions quarterback Nate Sudfeld on the very first play of the game; with excellent field position, the Giants only managed three points, as the offense picked up just two yards on three plays.

On the Lions’ next offensive drive, safety Jason Pinnock - who intercepted Sudfeld four plays prior - knocked a fourth-and-1 pass away for a turnover on downs.
