5 players to watch against the Saints
Keep an eye on these five players as the Giants take on the Saints, Sunday at home
TE RHETT ELLISON
Ellison, whom coach Pat Shurmur compared to Giants legend Mark Bavaro this week, takes on a larger role with fellow tight end Evan Engram sidelined after suffering a knee injury in Week 3. Ellison caught three passes for 39 yards last week, including a 16-yard touchdown.
WR ODELL BECKHAM JR.
Beckham is looking for his first touchdown since Oct. 8, 2017, and the Saints are allowing a league-high 34.3 points per game. "I love being in the end zone," Beckham said. "It has been a while."
DT B.J. HILL
The rookie recorded his first career sack last week, and he will be key in getting pressure up the middle against Drew Brees.
S LANDON COLLINS
Dual-threat running back Alvin Kamara and wide receiver Michael Thomas put a lot of stress on a defense, and Collins is a key to relieving it.
RT CHAD WHEELER
The Giants tweaked their offensive line last week, replacing Ereck Flowers with Wheeler at right tackle. Coach Pat Shurmur liked the way he finished his blocks as the Giants turned in their best offensive performance of the year.
