New York Giants secure overtime victory against Houston Texans

The New York Giants secured a 27-21 overtime victory against the Houston Texans at Reliant Stadium, rebounding from previous disappointing results. After blowing a lead in the final minute of regulation, the Giants forced a three-and-out in overtime and executed an 81-yard drive in three plays to clinch the win.

Key plays in the extra period included a 9-yard completion from J.J. McCarthy to Malik Nabers and a 42-yard run by Cam Skattebo. The game was ultimately decided by a 30-yard run from Devin Singletary.

Giants head coach John Harbaugh praised the team's resilience and character, stating they won because they “didn't quit” and “didn't sulk.” Despite facing significant injury challenges—including the loss of quarterback Jaxson Dart and linebacker Tremaine Edmunds—the Giants (4-2-1) enter their bye week as the only NFC East team with a winning record.
