In the first regular-season overtime under new rules, Giants opt to kick off to start the game.
Super Bowl LVIII and a Giants-Cowboys game went into overtime in NFL history, ensuring both teams a possession. The 49ers won the toss in the Super Bowl, chose to receive, but lost when the Chiefs scored a touchdown. In the Giants-Cowboys game, the Giants chose to kick and lost. The decision didn’t spark discussion, unlike the 49ers’ decision. The debate continues on whether to kick or receive in the new format. The purpose was to reduce the importance of the coin toss in determining the winner, and so far, the team winning the toss has lost in both games under the new format.
