The New York Giants picked up a hard-fought victory Sunday, defeating the Tennessee Titans 12-7 at MetLife Stadium to improve to 2-1 on the season.

In their first game without starting quarterback Jaxson Dart, the Giants leaned on their defense and special teams to get the job done. New York struggled to find the end zone, but four field goals from rookie kicker Dominic Zvada and a clutch interception in the closing seconds proved to be enough.

Jameis Winston completed 12 of 18 passes for 117 yards and also used his legs when necessary, scrambling for a 15-yard first down.

The Giants’ offense struggled to generate touchdowns, but Zvada came through with four field goals to account for all 12 of New York’s points.

With only 14 seconds remaining, Titans quarterback Cam Ward attempted to find a receiver in the end zone. Giants safety Jevón Holland came up with the interception, ending Tennessee’s final scoring opportunity and securing the 12-7 victory.

The play capped off a strong defensive effort from New York, which held the Titans to just one touchdown.

The Detroit Lions secured a hard-fought 31-24 victory over the New York Jets, relying on a balanced offensive assault and a clutch pass rush to earn the win. Despite a big passing day from New York, Detroit controlled the line of scrimmage and won the turnover battle when it mattered most.

When the Lions needed efficient playmaking, Jahmyr Gibbs delivered in every facet of the game. The star running back dominated touches, racking up 99 rushing yards on 20 carries (5.0 yards per carry) along with two touchdowns on the ground.

While Jets quarterback Geno Smith posted strong raw numbers (31-for-37 for 321 yards and 3 TDs), the Lions sacked Smith five times for a loss of 44 total yards, drastically altering drive momentum and taking New York out of rhythm in critical situations.

Lions QB Jared Goff completed 25 of 32 passes for 269 yards, 2 touchdowns, and no interceptions. Detroit won the time of possession battle (31:05 to 28:24) and ensured the Jets never got the final spark they needed to complete a comeback.

Detroit’s victory showcased their formula for winning close games: feed your star playmaker, and control the line of scrimmage on defense. The Lions proved too much for the Jets to handle in a 31-24 thriller.

The Los Angeles Rams bounced back from their season-opening flop in Australia to score a stylish 28-6 victory over the New York Giants on Monday.

Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford returned to form with 327 passing yards and four touchdowns for Los Angeles as the Giants never recovered after suffering an early injury to signal-caller Jaxson Dart.

The Los Angeles Rams had Davante Adams, Trent McDuffie and Matthew Stafford, who looked like he did during his MVP season. They also had defensive tackle Aaron Donald back for the first time since the 2023 season. 

The Rams pounded the New York Giants, though New York hardly had a chance after quarterback Jaxson Dart left the game after one possession due to what is believed to be a sprained MCL.

The night started with Dart suffering that knee injury. Jameis Winston replaced him. Winston completed just 4 of 12 passes in the first half for 58 yards and threw a bad interception to McDuffie in Rams territory, which wasn’t a big surprise given the interception issues he has had through his career.

Cam Skattebo and the rushing attack combined for a paltry 52 yards on the ground. Malik Nabers, hampered by a shoulder injury he sustained at the end of the first quarter, caught only one pass for a single yard.

In the New York Jets’ 2026 home opener, on a dreary, cool and rainy day in East Rutherford, New Jersey, the Jets fell to the Green Bay Packers, 20 – 17.

The New York Jets thought they were headed to their first 2-0 record since the 2015 season.

But head coach Aaron Glenn’s team couldn’t hold on to a second-half lead Sunday afternoon and lost a heartbreaker to the Green Bay Packers in overtime.

Late miscues and a key failed play led to the Jets (1-1) losing their first game of the season.

Geno Smith was sacked on the first two plays of overtime, and the Jets had to punt on their first possession. It allowed the Packers to march down the field and win it with a 26-yard field goal.

The devastating loss brought the Jets’ record to 1-1. Now the Jets have to put the loss behind them and get ready for a difficult challenge as they prepare to go on the road to face the Detroit Lions next Sunday.

The New York Yankees officially clinched a 2026 MLB postseason berth on Monday night with an 8-3 comeback victory over the Minnesota Twins.

“You start back in February and the goal is to go play in October and go win a championship,” manager Aaron Boone said during an on-field interview with the YES Network. 

The Yankees’ third consecutive postseason berth and ninth in 10 years since Aaron Judge’s rookie season in 2017 became official in the eighth inning when the Tigers finished off a 6-5 win over the Jays.

After handshakes on the field, the Yankees excitedly headed to the visiting clubhouse to whoop it up by soaking everyone with champagne and beer.

“I feel like we’re in a good place, but we’ve got to keep playing well,” Boone said. We’ve just got to continue to take care of our business.”

The New York Jets scored a touchdown on their opening drive of the game and never trailed en route to a 23-10 road win over the Tennessee Titans. 

Geno Smith waited 3,612 days for another start in a Jets uniform. He made it worth the wait.

Smith completed 19 of 24 passes for 215 yards, providing the steady  hand the Jets (1-0) envisioned in a dominant 23-10 season-opening victory over the Tennessee Titans (0-1) at Nissan Stadium.

After a cautious first half in which Smith passed for just 90 yards, the Jets opened up the passing game after halftime. That helped set up a Breece Hall touchdown run.

Smith, who led the NFL in interceptions last season, was decisive and careful with the football. The Jets’ offensive line also gave him enough time in the pocket to find open receivers.

Hall was another catalyst for the Jets’ offense, rushing for 102 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. He looked very much like the player who recorded his first 1,000-yard season last year. The Jets finished with 152 rushing yards against the Titans.

Coca-Cola announced the expansion of its cherry portfolio with the launch of the Coca‑Cola Cherry Float and the nationwide release of Diet Coke Cherry — now a permanent addition to their lineup. 

Rolling out to retailers in the US and Canada, these flavors will join the existing Coca‑Cola Cherry and Coca‑Cola Zero Sugar Cherry lineup.

Cherry Coke was first introduced in 1985 as Coca‑Cola’s first-ever flavored extension, which the brand believes “established a legacy that continues to influence beverage culture today.”

The brand-new Coca‑Cola Cherry Float is inspired by the classic soda-fountain favorite, made to give fans a taste of a Cherry Coke float — without the ice cream or dairy.

Cherry Float features creamy vanilla notes and comes in full-sugar and zero-sugar options in 12-ounce 12-pack cans and 20-ounce bottles.

The Mets struggled in multiple facets again in their loss to the Astros 6-3. Despite a decent outing from Zac Thornton, the Mets’ bullpen could not hang on to the fragile lead they were given, and the offense had no response.

— It was a battle of rookie pitchers between New York’s lefty Zac Thornton and Houston’s righty Ethan Pecko.

— Astros star shortstop Jeremy Peña led off the game with a 435-foot home run. The Mets offense responded in kind during the bottom half of the first inning, when Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto socked back-to-back solo shots.

— Thornton was sharp in his 11th career start, striking out five, walking one, and allowing two earned runs on six hits across five full innings. Now through 61 innings, he sports a 2.93 ERA.

— Facing right-handed reliever Jonathan Pintaro with a man on second base in the sixth, Astros lefty Lamonte Wade Jr. stepped to the plate as a pinch hitter and cranked a two-run homer. 

— Wade’s third pinch-hit home run of his career was the turning point in the ballgame, giving the Astros a lead they wouldn’t relinquish.

— The Mets (61-76) were bested in the team’s series finale against the Houston Astros (69-68), their third straight series loss.

The Mets have ripped off 11 wins in 15 games after a trade deadline sell-off. They have won four of their last five series and have injected a bit of life into what had been a miserable season.

It will take an enormous run to even be in contention in mid-September. The Mets still trail the Padres by 10 games for the third and final NL wild-card spot, and six other teams are ahead of them. 

To reach 83 wins, the number of victories the final wild-card team secured a year ago, the Mets would need to go 25-9. That’s a .735 winning percentage, an extraordinarily tall order.

The Mets have the seventh-most difficult remaining strength of schedule, their opponents owning a combined .520 winning percentage. 

It includes 12 games against division leaders (White Sox and Rays on the road, Brewers and Astros at home).

Of the 34 games left, 18 are on the road, where the Mets are seven games under .500.

The New York Yankees have some encouraging news regarding their captain. Yankees general manager and senior vice president Brian Cashman appeared on the MLB Network on SiriusXM Radio and provided an important update on Aaron Judge’s recovery.

After what has felt like an endless wait for positive developments, Judge has now cleared another major hurdle. It is the first good news for the captain since he went on the Injured List.

Judge has been cleared to resume activities now that his injury has healed enough to allow him to begin ramping up his workload.

This represents the first major step in what will be a gradual recovery process. The Yankees aren’t going to rush their superstar back onto the field, particularly after he has already missed nearly two months.

Cashman also revealed that Judge believes he will return this season, and the medical staff shares that belief.

For the first time in nearly two months, Yankees fans have a legitimate reason to feel optimistic about their captain.

Judge believes he’ll be back. The doctors believe he’ll be back. And now, the recovery process is finally moving forward.
