Overshown was fined $9,527 for a late hit on Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart with 9:38 remaining in the first quarter. The unnecessary roughness penalty gave New York 15 yards during a drive that ultimately ended with a touchdown.

Ezeiruaku received an $11,941 fine for grabbing a Giants player’s facemask with 2:10 remaining in the fourth quarter. The penalty helped New York drain the clock and secure its 28-20 victory.

Williams was also fined $11,941 for taunting Giants safety Tyler Nubin following a fourth-quarter touchdown.

Williams held the ball toward Nubin after crossing the goal line, drawing a 15-yard unsportsmanlike-conduct penalty that was enforced on the extra-point attempt. Brandon Aubrey subsequently missed the 48-yard kick, leaving Dallas eight points behind.

"I don’t know why I did it. It’s just out of character. You don’t got to worry about that no more," Williams said afterward, according to NFL Network’s Jane Slater. "The damage is already done. It’s my fault. I’m better than that. I’m a pro."

Dallas finished the loss with nine accepted penalties. The Giants were assessed 11 penalties of their own as the NFC East rivals combined for 20.
