Giants on fast track to irrelevance with another despicable home loss to Commanders

In the back corner of the locker room, Bobby Okereke and Deonte Banks sat, shirtless, peering straight ahead into their lockers, the veteran Okereke looking as if he were counseling the younger Banks.

Off on the side, Dexter Lawrence sat on a folding chair in front of his own locker, quietly conversing with Brian Burns, who sat on the floor, his back against the wall, his legs outstretched.

These were four prominent starters on the Giants defense, the unit that caved in when it needed to stand up on a Sunday afternoon when Daniel Jones threw two touchdown pᴀsses and ran for another and all that came out of it was yet another loss.

“Just talking over the game — things that happened, things we need to change for this week coming up,’’ Burns said.

“I’ll probably keep what me and Dex said undisclosed, respectfully,’’ Burns said.

It was more of the same as Week 9 came and went with the Giants doing a little of this and a little of that and not nearly enough of anything that allows a team to actually win a game.

They trailed from start to finish and never put a serious scare in the Commanders in a routine 27-22 loss at MetLife Stadium that got just a bit interesting late in the fourth quarter.

The Giants are 2-7 and perhaps it is good that they are leaving the country for their next game — against the Panthers in Munich.

American soil has not been good to them this season.

“Not where you want to be, not the expectation we had to start the season,’’ Okereke told The Post. “It’s gonna take a great perspective, a great atтιтude and a great mindset to dig ourselves out of this hole.’’

It is now a four-game losing streak for the Giants, who are on the fast track to irrelevance, if they aren’t already there.
