The New York Giants became the first team officially eliminated from playoff contention on Sunday following a 27-20 loss to the Cooper Rush-led Dallas Cowboys.
For the Giants, it was also their seventh consecutive loss, tying the seventh-longest such streak in franchise history.
Adding injury to insult, Big Blue likely lost nose tackle Dexter Lawrence (elbow) for the season, while several other players also went down with injuries.
Happy Thanksgiving, Giants fans.
Here are the snap counts that contributed to the Giants’ Week 13 loss.
Offensive snaps: 63
Defensive snaps: 76
Special teams snaps: 31
Rookie tight end Theo Johnson has become the unquestioned starter at the position, while fellow tight end Daniel Bellinger has seen his role significantly reduced.
After starting the game on the bench, rookie running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. ended up taking 73 percent of the offensive workload. He did not have a fumble.
The defensive snaps were all over the place due to a multitude of injuries. Notably, rookie safety Tyler Nubin continues to assume a 100 percent snap share.
This week, it was shared by veteran cornerback Adoree’ Jackson, who stepped in to replace Deonte Banks (inactive).
