Malik Nabers 59-yard touchdown gives Giants 35-26 lead

The Colts had gotten themselves back in the game, but the Giants’ star rookie has potentially put the game away.

After Indianapolis quarterback Joe Flacco hit receiver Alec Pierce for a 13-yard touchdown to make the score 28-26, Drew Lock connected with Malik Nabers caught a short pass and darted down the field for a 59-yard touchdown to make it 35-26.

When the Colts scored, they weren’t able to get the two-point conversion with a bit of a trick play. Flacco connected with Michael Pittman on the left side, but when he tried to lateral it to running back Jonathan Taylor, the ball fall to the ground with the Giants recovering the fumble. That kept New York ahead by two points.

While the Giants hadn’t been able to move the ball in the second half, New York’s ensuing drive changed that with Nabers’ catch and run. Nabers now has caught all six of his targets for 168 yards with two TDs.
