The New Orleans Saints defeated the New York Giants on Sunday, marking the second consecutive season the two teams have met with a Saints victory and improving the Saints' standing as they continue their season.
Following the win, a Saints defender was selected as the NFC Defensive Player of the Week, mirroring the honor awarded to a Saints player after a similar victory over the Giants last year. The NFC weekly honor recognizes the top defensive performer across the conference.
The award highlights the defensive impact the player had in limiting the Giants' offense during the game.
