Jayden Daniels secured his first NFL victory, leading the Washington Commanders to a 21-18 win against the New York Giants. Despite struggles in the red zone, Daniels' efforts were supported by kicker Austin Seibert, who achieved a franchise-record seven field goals. The game featured strong performances from both quarterbacks, with former LSU teammates facing off in their initial professional match.

Brian Robinson Jr. shone with a career-high 133 rushing yards. Meanwhile, Zach Ertz reached a significant milestone, becoming the 12th tight end in NFL history with over 7,500 receiving yards.
