D.J. threw a great ball, and I just had to finish it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But Engram also had two head-scratching drops: The first was juggled and briefly turned into an interception that replay overturned. The second hit him in the face mask and led to the Giants punting and setting up a quick-strike score by Washington.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16589405\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-nypost-large-desktop-uncropped wp-image-16589405 lazyload\" alt=\"Evan Engram\" width=\"662\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/20201108_GiantsWashington_103cs.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/20201108_GiantsWashington_103cs.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/20201108_GiantsWashington_103cs.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/20201108_GiantsWashington_103cs.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=662 662w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/20201108_GiantsWashington_103cs.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1324 1324w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>Evan Engram flexes after scoring a touchdown for the Giants.<\/span><span class=\"credit\">Corey Sipkin<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Fox analyst Jonathan Vilma said Engram doesn\u2019t drop easy passes often, but the memory remains fresh of a potentially game-sealing catch slipping through his fingers against the Eagles on Oct. 22.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe drops, you don\u2019t want those,\u201d Engram said. \u201cJust got to keep pushing through, and luckily we were able to overcome the adversity today and finish with a win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Only a trade offer including a first-round draft pick was going to pry away Engram from the Giants, according to an ESPN report.
