A statistical correction lands New York Giants’ Markus Golden a contract bonus

One of the few positives for the 2019 New York Giants has been the play of linebacker Markus Golden. It’s been another lost season for Big Blue, but Golden has emerged as one of the few good moves general manager Dave Gettleman has made.

During Sunday’s win over Washington, Golden sacked Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins in the third quarter. He was initially credited with a half-sack, as Lorenzo Carter garnered the other half. Haskins suffered a high ankle sprain on the play.

But after further review, the league has now credited Golden with a full sack.
