His first pick was by Jason Pinnock, who returned it 102 yards for a touchdown with 1:40 left in the first half. His second, which came in the third quarter, was taken by Bobby Okereke at the Miami 27, which led to a New York field goal.

Despite the turnovers, Miami’s speed with Tagovailoa facilitating the attack was too much for the Giants, as receiver Tyreek Hill racked up 181 receiving yards while running back De’Von Achane had 151 rushing yards.

The Dolphins improved to 4-1 for the 2023 season, good for their best start in two decades. Next up for the Dolphins is a matchup against the 1-4 Carolina Panthers, which kicks off at 7 a.m. HST next Sunday on CBS.
