A physical battle between the Giants and Commanders ended in controversy
Facing fourth-and-goal with 56 seconds left to play in the game, Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke zipped a pass to receiver Curtis Samuel in the end zone with Giants cornerback Darnay Holmes draped over him in coverage. Both players jumped to make a play on the ball but the pass fell incomplete, resulting in the end of the game after the officiating crew determined there wasn’t a penalty despite Holmes appearing to make a lot of contact with Samuel before the pass.
“It’s clearly a foul,” McAulay said to broadcasters Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth. “He grabs his arm. He plays through the back. It’s clearly before the ball gets there. This is defensive pass interference and it really should be called whether it’s the end of the game, beginning of the game. Doesn’t matter. It’s always a foul and should’ve been called.
