     New York(1-4) cut it to 14-3 on a 49-yard field goal by Graham Gano with 3:46 to go in the quarter. The Giants made it 14-10 with 1:40 left in the second. Defensive back Jason Pinnock intercepted a pass and returned it 102 yards for a touchdown to tie a Giants franchise record. It was the first touchdown in the first half for New York Giants so far in the 2023 regular season. The Dolphins got a 40-yard field goal from Jason Sanders at the end of the first half for a 17-10 advantage.
