FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The National Football League season continues tonight with its Thursday night matchup between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots to kick off Week 6. It's a primetime matchup for those two teams, which includes defensive end and former Hog Deatrich Wise, Jr., who has been one of a number of factors that has helped the Patriots to their 5-0 start.
Wise has played in four of New England's five games and has made the most of his opportunity, notching four solo tackles, as well as two tackles for loss, one sack and one forced fumble. He's one of 11 Patriots with at least one sack this year and is part of, arguably, the top defense in the NFL. New England is allowing a league-low 239 yards per game has the best third-down defense in the NFL (12.7%).
Kickoff against the Giants is set for 7:20 p.m. CT and will be televised on FOX, NFL Network and Amazon Prime.
