Mazi Smith's standout performance against the Giants has solidified his role with the Dallas Cowboys, showcasing the skills that made him a first-round pick in 2023.

Coach Mike McCarthy praised Smith's play, highlighting his three tackles and significant contributions to the run defense that limited the Giants to just 26 rushing yards.
