Giants' rookie linebacker Spencer Paysinger saw playing time on special teams and recorded an assisted tackle. Meanwhile Patriot third-year safety and starter Patrick Chung had six tackles (two solos) and a pass deflection during the game.

Paysinger is the first former Duck to play on a winning Super Bowl team since Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dennis Dixon in 2009.
