NEW YORK _ Years from now, Sunday's contest may be remembered as Daniel Jones' first career start at MetLife Stadium. In short-term history, though, the Giants' 24-3 victory had very little to do with him.
Wayne Gallman, starting in place of injured Saquon Barkley, scored two touchdowns and a much-maligned Giants defense harassed Washington for four takeaways � including an interception returned for a touchdown � to post a second straight victory and even the record for a team that began the season with two uninspired losses.
Jones became the first Giants rookie quarterback to win his first two starts since Phil Simms in 1979. He completed 23 of 31 passes for 225 yards and ran for 33 yards. He also threw two interceptions.
