New York Giants offensive lineman James Hudson III was placed under the microscope on Sunday early in the team’s pivotal divisional matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
Hudson had a few miscues for the Giants and it may have taken point off of the board for the offense-starved team. Hudson was flagged for four penalties on the opening drive and it cost the Giants 30 yards.

At one point, Hudson took an open-handed swing at Cowboys pass-rusher James Houston. The moment was highlighted on social media and Hudson was flagged for unnecessary roughness.
New York settled for a Graham Gano field goal as Russell Wilson’s 35-yard pass to Wan’Dale Robinson was also brought back because of a penalty on Hudson.
