Ryan Nassib's first NFL TD pass a bittersweet milestone
A first career touchdown is usually something that is to be celebrated.
Ryan Nassib and Myles White did not get that chance.
They connected on a 25-yard scoring pass with 1:54 left in Sunday night’s 49-17 drubbing at the hands of the Vikings. While it was the first touchdown for each of them, something both likely grew up dreaming about, neither was able to appreciate the accomplishment.
Nassib didn’t even bother to keep the ball, letting White have it if he wanted it. “It was a better catch than it was a throw anyway,” the Giants backup quarterback said.
White, though, wanted nothing to do with it. He just handed it to the officials after the score.
