Giants Week 10: Daniel Jones’ late TD pass saves Giants from an embarrassing loss

Saquon Barkley rushed for 100 yards, but the Giants still needed a late Daniel Jones TD pass to beat the Texans.

The New York Giants avoided an embarrassing loss to the Houston Texans in Week 10, thanks to a late touchdown pass from Daniel Jones to Isaiah Hodgins.

The Giants were heavy favorites heading into the game, but they struggled to move the ball against the Texans' defense. Jones was sacked four times and threw an interception, and the Giants were held to just 10 points in the first three quarters.

However, the Giants finally got their offense going in the fourth quarter. Barkley rushed for a 40-yard touchdown to give the Giants a 17-13 lead, and Jones hit Hodgins for a 21-yard touchdown pass with just over two minutes remaining to seal the win.

The win was a much-needed one for the Giants, who improved to 7-2 on the season. The Giants are now in first place in the NFC East, and they have a chance to clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Detroit Lions in Week 11.
