The Cowboys were in control of the first half, but only led the Giants 13-10 at halftime.

Dallas outscored New York 175 to 103, but went 0-2 in the red zone and settled for Brandon Aubrey field goals of 23 and 33 yards and 0-1 on fourth down. The only touchdown scored by the Cowboys was a defensive touchdown.

Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown, facing Drew Lock, deflected a pass intended for running back Devin Singletary toward himself and intercepted it. Overshown ran 23 yards to the end zone.

In a duel of backup quarterbacks, Cooper Rush has completed 12 of 24 passes for 116 yards for the Cowboys, while Lock is 8 of 17 for 55 yards and the pick-six for the Giants. Cowboys receiver CeeDee Lamb dropped three of his six rush targets and caught two passes for 39 yards.

The Giants scored their touchdown on a 1-yard run by Tyrone Tracy after Lock made a 28-yard run for a 1-yard score on the team’s first possession. It was New York’s first lead in a game since October 6th.

Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle has eight carries for 50 yards and Giants receiver Malik Nabers has five catches for 39 yards.

Cowboys rookie cornerback Josh Butler injured his right knee while attempting to intercept a pass intended for Darius Slayton with 40 seconds left in the half. Butler was escorted to the X-ray room.

Butler started for Trevon Diggs, who is inactive for the second straight week, moving Israel Mukuamu to the starting spot and Jourdan Lewis moving to the outside.

Giants defensive lineman DJ Davidson (shoulder) is questionable, as is Cowboys left tackle Tyler Guyton (ankle/knee).
