Giants 2nd-year LB turned in an elite performance in Week 3 loss

In a game where it seemed like the entire defense forgot how to tackle, second-year linebacker Micah McFadden managed to turn in the performance of his career.

McFadden had no struggles in the tackling department on Thursday night, despite missing four tackles in Week 2. In Week 3, however, McFadden turned this weakness into a strength, putting on an elite display of tackling abilities on primetime.

Big Blue missed a staggering amount of tackles in their 30–12 loss against the 49ers. But McFadden managed to total 10 combined tackles (nine solo) with an elite four tackles for loss.
