Patrick Peterson had built a Hall of Fame résumé before Isaiah Hodgins entered college in 2017, let alone began finding his way in the NFL.
But the unheralded Hodgins made one of the great cornerbacks of this generation learn his name Saturday by making big catch after big catch to set career highs in the first half, and by holding his own in a trash-talking battle. Hodgins had receptions on three straight plays for the Giants, a scramble-drill touchdown, a full-extension grab and then …
It is no surprise that Hodgins — who finished with eight catches for 89 yards as the Giants’ passing playbook opened up as it hadn’t all season — isn’t intimidated by legends. He grew up around NFL stars who were teammates with his Super Bowl-winning father, James, from 1999-2006 on the Rams, Cardinals and Jets.AP
When Hodgins and the Giants joined forces on Nov. 2 via a waivers claim, it was a perfect match of a 2020 sixth-round draft choice hungry to get out of Bills star Stefon Diggs’ shadow and find an opportunity and a team desperate for any perimeter playmaking. Hodgins quickly proved to be more helpful to Daniel Jones than overpaid $72 million free-agent Kenny Golladay and now-traded draft bust Kadarius Toney ever were.
