NFL roundup: Jets snatch first win of season; Giants' Skattebo suffers gruesome ankle injury
"Breece Hall rushed for two second-half touchdowns and threw a four-yard TD pass to Mason Taylor with 1:54 left, helping the New York Jets edge the Cincinnati Bengals for their first win of the season. Justin Fields was 21 for 32 for 244 yards and a touchdown in his first game since Jets owner Woody Johnson sharply criticized his team's quarterback play during their winless start. Hall finished with 18 carries for 133 yards."
"The Jets (1-7), who trailed 31-16 after three quarters, rolled to 502 yards of offense in their highest scoring game of the season, including a season-high 254 on the ground. Joe Flacco passed for two touchdowns and rushed for a one-yard score, but the Bengals (3-5) lost for the fifth time in six games. Ja'Marr Chase had 12 catches for 91 yards in his third consecutive game with double-digit receptions."
"Saquon Barkley ran for a 65-yard score on his first carry of the game and topped 100 yards rushing for the first time this season in the Philadelphia Eagles' victory over the New York Giants (2-6). Barkley finished with 150 yards rushing and caught one of Jalen Hurts' four touchdown passes before he left the game with a groin injury. The Eagles (6-2) evened the season series against their division rivals."
