"Jets secure first season victory; Giants' Skattebo sustains severe ankle injury"

New York Jets 39–38 Cincinnati Bengals

Breece Hall scored two rushing touchdowns in the second half and connected on a four-yard pass to Mason Taylor with just under two minutes remaining, securing a narrow victory for the New York Jets over the Cincinnati Bengals. This marked the Jets' first win of the season.

Justin Fields completed 21 of 32 passes for 244 yards and a touchdown in his first appearance since team leadership publicly addressed concerns over the starting quarterback's performance during their winless start. Hall added 133 yards on 18 carries. The Jets (1-7), previously trailing 31-16 after three quarters, totaled 502 offensive yards, their highest of the season, with 254 coming on the ground. Cincinnati’s Joe Flacco threw for two touchdowns and ran for another, but the Bengals (3-5) suffered their fifth loss in six games. Ja’Marr Chase recorded 12 receptions for 91 yards—his third straight game with double-digit catches.

New York Giants 20–38 Philadelphia Eagles

Saquon Barkley opened the game with a 65-yard touchdown run, surpassing 100 rushing yards for the first time this season as the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New York Giants (2-6). Barkley finished with 150 rushing yards and caught one of Jalen Hurts’ four touchdown passes before exiting with a groin injury. The Eagles (6-2) evened their season series against their division opponents.

New York’s chance at their first season sweep against Philadelphia since 2007—and their first win in Philadelphia since 2013—was hampered when rookie Cam Skattebo suffered a severe ankle injury. After a hard hit, Skattebo's foot twisted awkwardly, requiring a cart to leave the field as players from both teams gathered around him. He was later taken to a hospital for further evaluation.

Dallas Cowboys 24–44 Denver Broncos

Bo Nix threw four touchdown passes and rookie RJ Harvey scored three times as the Denver Broncos dominated the Dallas Cowboys. The Broncos (6-2) extended their winning streak to five games and secured their ninth consecutive home victory—currently the longest in the league.

JK Dobbins rushed for 111 yards on 15 carries, while rookies Pat Bryant and Jahdae Barron also contributed significantly—Bryant with his first career touchdown and Barron with his first interception against Dak Prescott. The Cowboys (3-4-1) received two rushing touchdowns from former Broncos running back Javonte Williams.

Chicago Bears 16–30 Baltimore Ravens

Derrick Henry ran for two scores, and Tyler Huntley’s crucial third-down completion late in the fourth quarter helped the Baltimore Ravens secure a win without Lamar Jackson. The victory ended Baltimore’s four-game losing streak and halted Chicago’s four-game winning run.

The Bears (4-3) controlled the first quarter but managed only two field goals before being held scoreless until the fourth. Although Jackson returned to practice, he was ruled out for a third straight game due to a hamstring injury. The Ravens (2-5) had previously lost 11 of their last games.
