RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP)—Tom Coughlin and John Fox met at midfield and shared a laugh.
What else could the two coaches do after seeing the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers preseason game end on a bizarre play as the clock ran out.
Defensive end Tommie Hill scored on a stunning 18-yard fumble return on the final play from scrimmage and the Giants scored a 24-17 victory over the Panthers on Monday night.
“Kind of an interesting ending,” said Fox, who was still smiling even though his team lost.
Stunning. Shocking. Unexpected. Pick a word. They all would fit.
