Recap · 1 min read

The Las Vegas Raiders beat the New York Jets 38–33 despite being outgained 439–333, overcoming a 9-point deficit with help from Dylan Laube’s 95-yard kickoff return touchdown.

After trailing 23–14 at halftime, Las Vegas scored 14 unanswered points across the third and fourth quarters. Kirk Cousins’ 2-yard touchdown pass to Nailor put the Raiders ahead for good, and Gay’s 53-yard field goal extended the lead before Chinn intercepted Smith’s final pass.
