According to Pro Football Focus (PFF),
Mazi Smith was the highest-graded defender. He consistently reset the line of scrimmage, kept the opposing offensive line off the Dallas linebackers, and even shed blocks to get stops. His play improved in the fourth quarter of the last game, but tonight was a coming-out party. Smith looked like a first-round impact defensive tackle against the Giants.
DeMarvion Overshown was hurt all 2023 but looked like a potential star. He tied for the lead with six solo tackles, but the most impressive thing about his game was how he tackled the Giants two top playmakers in the open field. He tackled Nabers to stop a third-down conversion, and he saved a touchdown by getting to Robinson at the three-yard line to hold New York to a field goal.
Hunter Luepke needs mentioning too. The 2023 undrafted free agent (UDFA) made a few key plays on both touchdown drives. He picked up a third-down conversion with a pass reception on the first touchdown drive and escaped Kayvon Thibodeaux on fourth and one to get a first down.
