Dustin Hopkins made a 43-yard field goal on an untimed down — after a penalty negated his miss seconds earlier — and Washington beat the New York Giants 30-29 on Thursday night. He cost Washington dearly with a late interception, but after Graham Gano’s fifth field goal of the game gave the Giants a 29-27 lead with 2:00 remaining, Heinicke guided Washington back into field goal range. Washington’s defense forced a field goal, giving Heinicke another chance. That play was shortened by a holding penalty, however, and the Giants settled for a field goal. Washington took a 14-10 lead on a 2-yard TD run by McKissic in the final minute of the half.
