2. Isaiah Hodgins can’t stop making plays for this team

What a true blessing Hodgins has been from the Football Gods. A midseason pickup, Hodgins has become the most reliable option for Jones. Despite James leading the team with his seven receptions for 76 yards, No. 18 still delivered for the Giants with his four catches, and another score to celebrate.

With Kenny Golladay being a major disappointment, and Kadarius Toney now playing for the Chiefs, someone had to come up big for Jones in the second half of the campaign and Hodgins has done just that. He’s got sure hands and no one has to worry about him having any issues when it comes to drops.

Hodgins is going to be a big part of this offense once the postseason arrives. Mike Kafka needs to keep getting him the ball. Not only has Hodgins been a pleasant surprise for the team this year, but he has 100 percent deserved a deal to return next campaign as well.
