On Sunday, for the Giants, both were integral to the team’s victory. Robinson had five receptions for 71 yards and touchdown. He had a couple of big catches late. Andru Phillips, meanwhile, would get his first career interception late in the game.
The Giants would win the game 45 – 33 and that would eliminate the Colts from playoff contention. As for Robinson and Phillips, it was nice to see them perform well and it looks like they could be solid players for New York going forward.
