“I’m like, ‘Bro, you would’ve (done) the same thing for your mom, too, so why would you give me a flag for that?’” “The ref came and told me, he was like, ‘You got a taunting penalty for jumping in the stands,’” Hill said. He was flagged for taunting after the play when he jumped into the stands to give the ball to his mother. Hill also had a 69-yard touchdown catch on Miami’s opening drive of the third quarter that put the Dolphins ahead 24-10. He tied Calvin Johnson for the third-most such games in a player’s first eight NFL seasons, joining Lance Alworth (17) and Jerry Rice (16).

Hill hauled in eight passes for 181 yards, topping 150 yards receiving for the 13th time in his career.

I thought we played good defense in spurts, but we’ve got to play a full game.” “It’s real-deal speed, and that was the deciding factor,” Giants linebacker Bobby Okereke said. Raheem Mostert, who had a 2-yard rushing score Sunday, has the other. Three belong to Hill and three to Achane. The Dolphins are responsible for the seven fastest speeds in the NFL. Hill’s top speed on that play was 22.01 mph, which is the fastest ball-carrier speed in the NFL this season.

Tyreek Hill caught a pass from Tagovailoa on Miami’s next drive that went for 64 yards. He had four touchdowns against Denver in Week 3 and two against Buffalo last Sunday.Īchane reached 21.76 mph on his touchdown run, according to NFL NextGen Stats. “We’ve got to figure out a way to protect him better,” Giants coach Brian Daboll said.Īchane’s 76-yard touchdown in the second quarter helped Miami to a 17-10 halftime lead and made him the only player in the Super Bowl era with seven touchdowns through his first four NFL games. Jones had X-rays after the game and will undergo imaging tests on Monday to determine the severity of the neck issue. Tyrod Taylor replaced Jones with 12:11 left and led the Giants on a scoring drive capped by a 51-yard field goal by Graham Gano. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones left in the fourth with a neck injury after a sack by linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel. The 102-yard interception return tied for the longest in Giants history. It was the Giants’ first touchdown in the first half of a game this season. The Giants’ Jason Pinnock returned one of the interceptions 102 yards for New York’s only touchdown. Tagovailoa was 22 for 30 for 308 yards with two touchdown passes and two interceptions. With the win, Miami (4-1) regained first place in the AFC East after the Buffalo Bills (3-2) lost to Jacksonville in London earlier Sunday. The Dolphins’ 524 yards gave them 2,568 for the season, which is the most yards through the first five games of a season in NFL history. “It’s very promising to know that he knows where he’s going to line up,” said quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, “and then basically if he’s getting the ball, you know it’s going to be a big play more often than not.” He averaged 13.7 yards on 11 carries for a total of 151 yards, becoming the first Dolphins player with three straight 100-yard rushing games since Jay Ajayi in 2016.
