New York Jets rookie Chip Trayanum hospitalized after preseason loss to Giants

The New York Giants defeated the New York Jets 23-6 in their preseason finale at MetLife Stadium. The game was marked by a significant injury to Jets rookie running back Chip Trayanum.

The Jets' defense provided some highlights, including an interception by linebacker Marcelino-McCrary Ball and a fumble recovery by Qwan’tez Stiggers. The Giants' offense featured a touchdown run by Tyrone Tracy Jr. and a field goal by Dominic Zvada.
