Lions 34, Giants 27 (OT) | Ford Field, Detroit | November 23, 2025 | Attendance: 64,238 | FOX
Jahmyr Gibbs took the first handoff of overtime and ran 69 yards for the score. Detroit Lions 34, New York Giants 27 — finished in one carry.
New York had 517 total yards, controlled possession for 37 minutes and 11 seconds, and led by ten points three separate times. None of it held. With 2:59 left and the Giants ahead 27-24, interim head coach Mike Kafka declined a short field goal attempt on fourth-and-goal from the Detroit 6. Winston’s throw to Theo Johnson fell incomplete. Jake Bates answered 2:31 later — a 59-yard field goal with 28 seconds on the clock, game tied at 27, matching a Lions franchise record. New York won the overtime coin toss and kicked off. One snap. Gone.

Detroit moved to 7-4 and back into the NFC playoff picture ahead of a Thanksgiving home game against Green Bay. New York dropped to 2-10 — the Giants had now surrendered fourth-quarter leads in five games that season, the most of any team in the NFL. For Gibbs, the afternoon went into the Lions’ record book twice: 219 yards rushing, third most in franchise history for a single game, and 12 career multi-touchdown performances, one more than Billy Sims ever had in Detroit.
