EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Aldrick Rosas delivered the game-winning 23-yard field goal to give the New York Giants a thrilling 12-9 overtime victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

The Giants took a 6-3 halftime lead. They also tried some rare trickery on their first drive, which included a fake punt that saw running back Shane Vereen's pass intended for tight end Evan Engram picked off by safety Daniel Sorensen.

After the Chiefs failed to convert on the Giants' turnover, New York defensive tackle Damon Harrison picked off Kansas City quarterback Alex Smith's shovel pass intended for tight end Travis Kelce at the Chiefs' 26-yard line.

The Giants then marched 26 yards on six plays toward a 1-yard touchdown run by running back Orleans Darkwa to take a 6-0 lead. Rosas missed the extra point.

The Chiefs got on the board in the second quarter with a 31-yard field goal by Harrison Butker to cap a 15-play, 61-yard scoring drive that chewed 9:17 off the clock, cutting the Giants' lead to 6-3 at the half.

The Giants took the lead in the fourth quarter when cornerback Janoris Jenkins picked off Smith deep in Kansas City territory. Rosas atoned for his missed extra point earlier in the game by hitting a 26-yard field goal with 1:41 left in regulation to give the Chiefs the 9-6 lead.

The Chiefs got two fourth-quarter field goals from Butker, including a game-tying 26-yarder that came with one second remaining to send the game into overtime.

New York's winning drive in overtime was set up thanks to a 36-yard reception by receiver Roger Lewis, who also drew a pass interference penalty on Chiefs cornerback Phillip Gaines before Rosas' game-winning field goal.

The Giants snapped a three-game losing streak in their first home win of the season.

The Chiefs (6-4) will host Buffalo next week. The Giants (2-8) head to Washington to face the Redskins on Thanksgiving night.
