Jameis Winston runs for a touchdown in the Giants' 26-3 preseason win over the
Dolphins
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) --- Jameis Winston threw for 150 yards and ran for a
touchdown while playing the first half, and the New York Giants beat the Miami
Dolphins 26-3 on Saturday.
Devin Singletary rushed for 40 yards on eight carries and scored a touchdown,
while Dominic Zvada and Ben Sauls each kicked two field goals for the Giants
(1-1).
Both teams primarily used backups in this preseason matchup after starters had
extensive work during a joint practice at the Dolphins' training facility on
Thursday.
Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart participated in pregame drills but didn't play.
Dolphins starter Malik Willis was in street clothes.
New York outgained Miami 390 yards to 102.
Two-time All Pro receiver Odell Beckham Jr., attempting to win a roster spot in
his second stint with the Giants, caught two passes for 17 yards. Targeted four
times, Beckham also had a pass from Winston go through his hands in the end
zone in the second quarter.
The Dolphins (0-2) started Cam Miller at quarterback after Quinn Ewers, who is
second on the depth chart, sat out because of a groin injury he sustained in
Miami's preseason opener against Washington. Miller played the first half,
completing 6 of 11 passes for 60 yards. He was sacked twice.
Winston capped New York's opening drive with an 11-yard run for a 7-0 lead. The
12-year veteran had a 29-yard completion to Darius Slayton, and Calvin Austin
had a 21-yard rush during the eight-play, 83-yard drive.
Zvada kicked a 43-yard field goal early in the second quarter.
Singletary made it 17-0 with a 13-yard touchdown run midway through the second.
Miami got on the board when Riley Patterson kicked a 53-yard field goal with
1:12 remaining in the first half. Winston then directed a 54-yard drive that
ended with Zvada's 32-yard kick to give New York a 20-3 lead at the half.
Brandon Allen replaced Winston and went 13 of 18 for 101 yards. He led two
drives that were capped by field goals from Sauls.
