The New York Giants returned to the football field on Friday night, but left with an unpleasant taste in their mouth after falling 27-10 to the Miami Dolphins.

While the score itself is irrelevant, coach Ben McAdoo can’t be too pleased with the team’s overall performance.

The Giants started the game strong, scoring on a short touchdown run courtesy of Rashad Jennings. But give the assist to rookie wide receiver Sterling Shepard, who helped set-up the touchdown plunge with an incredible diving reception.

Quarterback Ryan Nassib later had an opportunity to put the Giants up by two touchdowns, but the offense fizzled out deep inside the red zone. They were forced to settle for a short Josh Brown field goal.

Unfortunately for the Giants, that was the peak of their positives as the Dolphins went on to score 27 unanswered points, which included 17 points off of four Giants turnovers.

Nassib had a forgettable performance, completing only seven of 15 passes for 75 yards with two interceptions. Those numbers included only 40 yards over his last 10 series.

Adding injury to insult, the Giants also suffered a slew of injuries. Among them was cornerback Eli Apple (leg strain), wide receiver Sterling Shepard (groin), wide receiver Geremy Davis (hamstring), cornerback Trevin Wade (unknown), fullback/tight end Will Johnson (burner) and linebacker B.J. Goodson (cramps).

For the Giants, it’s back to the drawing board. They’ll start going over some unpleasant film this coming week before taking on Rex Ryan and the Buffalo Bills next Saturday.

With the loss, the Giants now fall to 0-7 against Miami in the preseason.
