Newsome joined the Giants in the offseason on a one-year, $8 million deal, but he earned himself some longer-term security with his standout play to begin the campaign. Before a concussion kept him out for the Giants' Week 7 win over Houston, the 26-year-old cornerback recorded 25 tackles (17 solo), six pass breakups and one interception through the team's first six games.
