Making his first start for the New York Giants on Thursday, quarterback Drew Lock had two turnovers in a 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.
Lock set up the Giants’ opening score with a 29-yard run in the first quarter. After Lock was ruled short of the end zone, running back Tyrone Tracy punched in from one yard out to give New York a 7-3 lead.
