Week 2 of the 2021 NFL season has a lot to live up to.
The first week was filled with exciting games from start to finish and should’ve gotten the average football fan looking forward to seeing how the rest of the year plays out. Week 2 will begin with an NFC East matchup between the New York Giants and Washington Football Team.
The last time the Giants played on Thursday night was against the Philadelphia Eagles and Daniel Jones was a top online trend when he tripped over his own feet while he had an open lane toward the end zone. The Giants would lose that game after blowing a 21-10 lead in the fourth quarter.
Washington will start Taylor Heinicke in place of the injured Ryan Fitzpatrick. Heinicke nearly led the team to an upset win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the playoffs last season.
