That set up the short field the struggling Giants offense needed to convert a touchdown for their first lead in what wound up as a 20-20 tie. Oshane Ximines initially recovered the loose ball, but he coughed it up, too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I get to the quarterback, I always try to get the ball out,\u201d said Ojulari, who schooled the tight end who was charged with one-on-one blocking. \u201cYou never know what could h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>en. I reached for it, it came out, I thought \u2018OX\u2019 had it but, he missed it, so I just fell on it. Just kept hunting for the ball.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The play seemed to jump-start Ojulari, who was playing for the first time since Oct. 2. After injuring his right calf in training camp and missing the first two games, Ojulari injured his left calf in Week 4 against the Bears. He suffered a setback when it first looked like he might return.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari2.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Azeez Ojulari forces a Taylor Heinicke fumble in the Giants-Commanders tie.\" class=\"wp-image-24895854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Azeez Ojulari forces a Taylor Heinicke fumble in the Giants-Commanders tie.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Charles Wenzelberg \/ New York Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cIt definitely got me going,\u201d Ojulari said. \u201cJust fueled my fire and just got me on a roll after that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Later, Ojulari crushed Heinicke from the blind side on a third-and-10 in overtime, forcing a short completion and a punt. The one play that got away, however, was when he chased Heinicke from the pocket on fourth-and-4 late in the fourth quarter. The Giants lost coverage on the back end, however, and the Commanders converted a first down en route to the 90-yard touchdown drive that tied the score at 20-20.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was that close,\u201d Ojulari said. \u201cI was trying to change it up \u2014 go inside, spin back outside. Heinicke made a good throw and they got the ball. All the respect to him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ojulari acknowledged that he was on a snap limitation, but probably eclipsed the unidentified number. Head coach Brian Daboll credited Ojulari for doing \u201csome good things\u201d as the Giants split his reps with Ximines and Jihad Ward on non-obvious pass-rush situations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the team needed me, my body felt good to be able to go \u2014 however many plays it was,\u201d Ojulari said. \u201cMan, I\u2019ve been dying to get back out there. Just watching them on the side is tough. When I got my opportunity, took advantage of everything. I\u2019m blessed to be back.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"826\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Azeez Ojulari celebrates for the Giants\" class=\"wp-image-24895855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/ojulari.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Azeez Ojulari celebrates for the Giants<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Charles Wenzelberg \/ New York Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Giants played most of the second half without defensive tackle Leonard Williams (neck injury). If Williams misses time, Ojulari\u2019s return will be of even greater significance. If Williams plays next week against the Eagles, the Giants will finally have their four-man pass-rush \u2014 including Kayvon Thibodeaux and Dexter Lawrence \u2014 as designed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe urgency for me to get there [to quarterback] is high,\u201d Ojulari said after upping his career total to 10 sacks in 20 games. \u201cI just want to make an impact for the team no matter what it is. As a unit, we all \u2026 just get juice from each other and the rush gets hot. The intensity gets high.\u201d\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
