East Rutherford, NJ – Mark Sanchez threw for 64 yards and a 3 preseason victory over the Giants.

The game was originally supposed to be played on Saturday, but was postponed until Monday because of the approach of Hurricane Irene.

Sanchez completed 8-of-16 passes and played one drive into the third quarter before leaving the game. Shonn Greene rushed 11 times for 42 yards for the Jets.

Eli Manning also played into the third quarter and went 15-for-30 through the air for 200 yards and two interceptions.

Brandon Jacobs amassed 51 yards on 10 carries for the Giants, but was tossed out of the game in the third quarter for getting into a fight with Jets rookie defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson, who was also ejected.
