Overshown’s flashy pick-6 boosts Cowboys in Thanksgiving win over Giants
Associated PressARLINGTON, Texas — DeMarvion Overshown wasn’t sure he could run down the pass he tipped and turn it into an interception for a touchdown. Overshown’s dynamic pick-6 from 23 yards put Dallas in front for good, Rico Dowdle ran for a score in his first career 100-yard game and the Cowboys held on for a 27-20 Thanksgiving Day victory over the New York Giants. Cooper Rush threw a TD pass, and Dowdle finished with 112 yards Thursday as the Cowboys ended a six-game home losing streak going back to a wild-card playoff loss to Green Bay last season. “Everything’s kind of coming together, feeling good about it.” Drew Lock, who started in place of the injured Tommy DeVito a week after the benching and subsequent release of Daniel Jones, lost a fumble following Overshown’s pick-6 in a seventh consecutive loss for the Giants. “I was able to kick in some nitrous, and we were dancing in the end zone after that.” Overshown also recovered Lock’s fumble on the opening possession of the second half to set up Rush’s 2-yard TD pass to Brandin Cooks.
