Offensive lineman James Stone played 3 of 72 snaps (4 percent) .
Also, rookie safety Dezmen Southward played 10 of 68 of the defensive snaps (15 percent).
He played in the team’s 4-2-5 big nickel package, which featured three safeties. He finished with three tackles.
“I felt good to get out there,” Southward said. “I felt like I made a couple of plays. I was pretty solid when I was out there, but at the same time playing this game is about winning and we didn’t get that done.”
On third-and-11 from New York’s 16 with 13:07 left in the second quarter, Southward came up and put a big hit on New York wide receiver Preston Parker short of the first down marker.
“(Giants quarterback Eli Manning) threw a quick pass and they got it blocked up,” Southward said. “I was just trying to come downhill and do what safeties do. We hit. We come up and make tackles. I was a great feeling making that play.”
With William Moore out on short-time injured reserved, Kemal Ishmael started at strong safety.
