The New York Giants find themselves in an unfamiliar position heading into Week 15. The Giants, 2-11 and losers of seven straight, are actually favored by 2.5 points over the Washington Commanders, per FanDuel Sportsbook.
This is only the second time this season the Giants have been favored. The first was Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints, when they took a 14-3 lead but turned the ball over on five straight possessions and lost, 26-14.
This game will be at MetLife Stadium, where the Giants have earned their only two victories of the season.
The Commanders, NFC East champions a year ago, have fallen hard this season. Washington is 3-10 and has lost eight straight games.
Washington’s second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels has played in only seven games due to injuries. In a 31-0 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Daniels reinjured his left elbow and left the game. His status for this week is unknown. The Commanders also lost tight end Zach Ertz to a gruesome right knee injury.
The Giants are coming off a bye week. They currently have the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft after the Tennessee Titans defeated the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.
The Commanders beat the Giants 21-6 in Week 1. Daniels completed 19 of 30 passes for 233 yards and a touchdown, and the Commanders ran for 220 yards in that game.
