## Summary

J.J. McCarthy was forced off with a hip injury during the Giants’ game in Philadelphia, threatening to revive a run of defeats at the stadium dating back to 2013. Backup quarterback Jameis Winston led a late touchdown drive that put New York ahead, and the Giants held on to end the 13-game streak.

The article presents the comeback as evidence of the toughness and resilience associated with coach John Harbaugh’s team. Winston had lost the starting role to McCarthy weeks earlier, but stepped in when needed; the excerpt gives no score or further details about McCarthy’s injury.
