Commanders and Giants tie after Washington runs out of time in overtime
The Washington Commanders and New York Giants tied 27-27 on Oct.
11, 2026, after overtime ended before Washington could attempt a possible winning field goal.

Quarterback Jayden Daniels took blame, and coach Dan Quinn said the decision-making was his responsibility.
Magic Johnson, a minority owner of the Commanders, also questioned the team's handling of the final sequence.
Johnson became a part-owner in 2023, when Josh Harris bought the franchise from Daniel Snyder.
The result left Washington with a 1-3-1 record this season and a 3-13-1 record over its last 17 games, dating back to last season.
