Dallas Cowboys safety Xavier Woods named NFC Defensive Player of the Week

It never gets old celebrating a win, especially when they come against a division rival. The Dallas Cowboys swept the New York Giants on the season this past Monday night, and ultimately they did so in impressive fashion.

The Cowboys defense came up big in the Big Apple and despite the team being connected to a safety that happens to call MetLife Stadium home all last week, it was one of the Cowboys own safeties that really showed up.

Xavier Woods finished the night against the Giants with three tackles but it was his interception and forced fumble that stole the show.
