Considering all of the misfortune that has befallen the Patriots during a miserable 2023 season, most New England fans likely weren’t surprised to see Chad Ryland’s potential game-winning kick sail wide left at MetLife Stadium.
And it seems like the Giants weren’t all that shocked either to see the rookie’s attempt hook away from the goalposts.
Speaking after New York’s ugly 10-7 win over New England, Giants safety Xavier McKinney said that Ryland’s body language spelled doom for a Patriots team now saddled with a 2-9 record.
“I felt like he was going to miss,” McKinney told reporters via team-provided video.
