Former Alabama S Landon Collins continues racking up the awards this NFL season.
For the second-straight week, the New York Giants star earned the NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors, according to Pro Football Talk.
In addition to recording a sack and an interception in Sunday’s win over the Philadelphia Eagles, Collins also racked up an impressive 12 tackles.
Winning back-to-back Defensive Player of the Week awards hasn’t been done since 2010, when Pittsburgh S Troy Polamalu accomplished the feat.
Collins leads the Giants with 69 tackles, three interceptions and three sacks this season.
