Who were the highest and lowest graded players in Commanders' tie?
Here are the highest- and lowest-graded players from the Washington Commanders tie with the New York Giants in Week 5, as graded by PFF.
On Sunday at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland, the Washington Commanders faced off against the New York Giants in a rain-soaked, gloomy contest. The Commanders began the game strongly, leading 27-13 at halftime before the Giants mounted a fierce comeback to force overtime. In the overtime period, the Giants failed to capitalize on their first possession after a missed field goal, while the Commanders punted to give the Giants the opportunity to march down the field.
With less than two minutes remaining and Cam Skattebo committing a fumble, the Commanders had an opportunity to tie the game with a field goal, but instead opted to execute a play with eight seconds left on the clock. Jayden Daniels' muffed attempt resulted in the game ending in a tie, leaving both fanbases feeling frustrated and unsatisfied.

On the defensive end, the top five graded players were nose tackle Shy Tuttle (76.6), linebacker Joshua Josephs (71.5), safety Jeremy Reaves (71.4), defensive tackle Daron Payne (69.0), and cornerback Fabian Moreau (68.0).
