Quarterback Jaxson Dart spearheaded the Giants’ 13-point first quarter, opening the scoring for New York with a 20-yard run.

Just one drive later, Dart threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson to put the Giants up 13-3 late in the first quarter.

The Eagles quickly answered, however, scoring back-to-back touchdowns — including one with the help of Philadelphia’s controversial Tush Push play — giving them a 17-13 lead midway through the second quarter.

Running back Cam Skattebo, whom the Giants selected in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, gave the Giants the lead just before halftime with a rushing touchdown, his third of the season so far.

Dart, 22, threw for 127 yards while completing 10 of 13 passes in the first two quarters.

For the Eagles, quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 14 of 18 passes with 164 passing yards — but the Giant’s defense did sack the two-time Pro Bowler twice.

Eagles running back Saquon Barkley had 56 rushing yards on eight carries, including an 18-yard rush to open up the game.
