After intercepting Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousin twice, sacking him once on Sunday, New York Giants cornerback has been named NFC Defensive Player of the Week.

DRC is the third Giant to win the award this season (Landon Collins, Jason Pierre-Paul).

Not only does the Giants corner get a nice award for his effort this past weekend, but his fifth interception of the season triggered a $500,000 incentive in his contract.
