The New York Giants cut their deficit against the Jets to 14-13 as Daniel Jones connects with Darius Slayton on a 56-yard touchdown.
Down 14-7 and facing a 4th down, Daniel Jones and Darius Slayton pulled the New York Giants to within a single point.
Slayton burned Nate Hairston on the slat and took it to the house at MetLife.
This is just technique, fundamental football play. Nate Hairston, for some unknown reason, is facing the sideline. Shade inside and face the WR.
Darius Slayton takes it to the house. 14-14, Giants battle back. #GiantsPride #TakeFlight https://t.co/bAPdyJLpJe

For Slayton, it was his second of the first half.
Trailing 14-0 and all of the momentum in the Jets’ favor, the Giants offense finally came to life in the second quarter when they drove 75 yards on eight plays, culminating in a Jones five-yard touchdown to the man of the hour, Slayton.

The touchdowns are Slayton’s fourth and fifth touchdown of the season, which leads the Giants.
Slayton could be poised for a huge second half with Sterling Shepard and tight end Evan Engram missing the game due to injuries.
