New York Giants defensive playmaker primed for leadership role in 2020

Error 0:

The New York Giants have desperately lacked a true leader on defense the past few seasons. Landon Collins was the closest thing to a leader before GM Dave Gettleman completely overhauled the unit and put the team on a different track.

However, one young gun who displayed an increase in productivity last season could be the captain they need on defense, and his name is Jabrill Peppers.

When Gettleman initially traded Odell Beckham Jr. to the Cleveland Browns, most were up in arms, but ever since the deal went down, the Giants have seemed to gain the most value.
