Defense:

• The Redskins recorded three takeaways, their sixth multi-takeaway game this season. 
• All three takeaways came on interceptions of Giants quarterback Eli Manning. Prior to Sunday, Manning had been intercepted only six times through 10 games this season.

The Redskins registered their first three-interception game since Oct. 27, 2013 at Denver. * With a second quarter sack of Manning, linebacker Ryan Kerrigan moved into a tie for third place in sacks in franchise history since the NFL made sacks an official statistic in 1982 (43.5, Monte Coleman). He later moved into sole possession of third place with a third-quarter sack of Manning. * Kerrigan now has two games this season with 2.0 or more sacks (Week 5 at Atlanta). He has eight career games with 2.0 or more sacks, tied for fourth-most by a member of the Redskins since 1982. * Linebacker Perry Riley Jr. recorded his career-high second interception of the season, picking off Manning on New York's opening drive. * Riley Jr.'s interception marked the second time this season the Redskins have recorded an interception on an opponent's opening drive (Trenton Robinson, Week 5 at Atlanta). * On the Giants' second possession, cornerback Will Blackmon intercepted Manning, recording his first interception as a member of the Redskins. It marked the second interception of his career. *

The Redskins recorded two first-quarter interceptions for the first time since Dec. 30, 2012 vs. Dallas. That game also marked the last time the Redskins had recorded interceptions on their opponent's first two possessions in a game (Richard Crawford and Josh Wilson). * The Redskins recorded takeaways on an opponent's first two possessions for the first time since Nov. 30, 2014 at Indianapolis (Ryan Kerrigan fumble recovery and Ryan Clark interception). *

Rookie cornerback Quinton Dunbar recorded his first career interception, picking off Manning in the end zone in the third quarter. Dunbar transitioned to cornerback in training camp after signing with the team as a college free agent receiver out of Florida. * Dunbar registered a career-high three passes defensed. * Cornerback Bashaud Breeland tied his career high with four passes defensed, marking the second time this season and the third time in his career Breeland has notched four passes defensed in a single game. * Defensive lineman Chris Baker increased his career-high sack total this season to five with a sack of Manning in the fourth quarter. * The Redskins allowed a 300-yard passer for the first time this season. They entered Week 12 as one of only two NFL teams to have not allowed a 300-yard passer this year.

Special Teams:
