STUD: NY Giants safety Logan Ryan

Logan Ryan was among the most disruptive defenders on the field, for the NY Giants.

Not only did Ryan finish with a team-high 10 tackles, but the defensive captain also recovered a fumble along the sideline that slammed the door on a Broncos’ red-zone drive, forced a Jerry Jeudy fumble that the NY Giants recovered, and produced half a sack (Leonard Williams).

Ryan did miss a couple of tackles that wound up being big plays for Denver’s offense, but by and large was solid throughout, as the most consistent player in the NY Giants’ secondary.
