Redskins Rally Past Giants 19-17 in Opener

Washington Redskins beat New York Giants 19-17 on Billy Kilmer’s 5-yard TD pass to Mike Thomas with 45 seconds left. Kilmer, who was cut above the eye, returned after a 45-yard Ed Brown return and an earlier penalty helped move the ball to the Giants 24. The Giants led 17-12 after Morton’s 12-yard TD to Walker Gillette, but Washington answered with a late drive capped by Kilmer to Thomas.
