Key Takeaways

• Winston entered for the injured McCarthy in the third quarter and connected on a 5-yard touchdown to Isaiah Likely after guiding a drive that started at the Giants' 3-yard line, turning an 8-6 edge into a 13-8 lead for New York.
• McCarthy returned for the final play of the third quarter, finishing 12-of-19 for 127 yards with no TDs or picks, while Winston completed 6-of-8 passes for 71 yards and one TD in his cameo.
• Dominic Zvada booted field goals from 53 and 49 yards for a 6-0 and later a 19-8 cushion, with the second-half kicks extending the Giants' lead.
• Saquon Barkley scored on a 3-yard run in the first quarter, and a two-point conversion by Milton followed after a Giants penalty, giving the Eagles short-term life in a game defined by quarterback instability on both sides.
• Eagles’ QB transition included Tanner McKee going 0-3 as starter before being benched for Joe Milton, who showed flashes but could not propel sustained offense; Milton completed 18-of-34 passes for 169 yards with a late sack on the final play.
• Jonathan Greenard notched his first sack for Philadelphia after arriving via a draft-weekend trade, and the team later announced a four-year, $98 million extension for him including $50 million guaranteed.
• Braden Mann delivered an 86-yard punt late in the first half, the longest NFL punt since 2001, with another 60-yarder to start the second half; the Eagles also punted from their own end zone, keeping field-position drama alive.
