RB Dion Lewis – STUD

It’s been fairly evident that Lewis slid down the Giants’ running back hierarchy in recent weeks, but he made his most impressive play of the season in a big spot.

Three plays after Martinez forced Ronald Jones’ fumble, Lewis streaked for the pylon on a wheel route with Buccaneers linebacker Devin White draped all over him, but made a beautiful sliding catch on a perfectly thrown pass from Daniel Jones for a 15-yard touchdown to lift the Giants to a 7-3 lead.

Lewis finished with two catches for eight yards and a touchdown.
