Giants’ latest quarterback signing, Russell Wilson continued what turned out to be an impressive outing with a 29-yard touchdown pass to star receiver Malik Nabers adding to New York’s now 10-point lead.

Dak Prescott, finishing the game with 361 passing yards and two TDs, hit George Pickens for a crucial touchdown near the end of regulation.
