EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Receiver Odell Beckham Jr. caught three touchdown passes as the New York Giants wrapped up third place in the NFC East with a 24-13 win over the Redskins at MetLife Stadium that guaranteed Washington finishes last in the division for the sixth time in seven years.

Beckham did not enter the lineup until Week 5 because of a hamstring injury, but the Giants’ first-round pick has the look of a superstar. He finished the game with 12 receptions for 143 yards and the three touchdowns, his NFL-record seventh straight game with at least 90 receiving yards.

Beckham had scores of 6, 10 and 35 yards, giving the Giants leads of 7-3, 17-13 and finally capping the scoring 24-13 with 4:41 left in the game.

The Redskins had a golden opportunity on the final play of the first half to take control of the game. Quarterback Robert Griffin III, in when starter Colt McCoy left the game after the first series with a neck injury, took off for the end zone and initially appeared to have crossed the goal line for the touchdown.

Replays showed that Griffin didn’t have control of the ball. Officials ruled the play was a seven-yard gain and a fumble out of the back of the end zone for a touchback.

The call enraged Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss, who drew and unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and was ejected. The flag put the kickoff 30 yards closer to the endzone, and enticed an onside kick from kicker Josh Brown.

With the ball on the Redskins’ 35-yard line, the Giants recovered the kick and converted the four-play drive into a 32-yard field goal by Brown to tie the game 10-10.

A 61-yard completion from Griffin to wide receiver Andre Roberts, the result of busted coverage by Giants safety Antrel Rolle, and the ensuing 15-yard unsportsmanlike penalty called against Rolle for hitting the receiver out of bounds, set up a 38-yard field goal by Kai Forbath to give Washington the lead for the last time in the game.

Griffin finished his day 18 of 27 for 23 yards. He was sacked seven times by the Giants, but did not throw any interceptions.

The Giants (5-9) won their third game at MetLife Stadium this season. They will close out their 2014 road game schedule next week at St. Louis.

The Redskins (3-11) close out their season with home games against Philadelphia and Dallas.
