Deonte Banks Treats Giants to NYC Dinner After Pick

The cornerback celebrated his game-sealing interception by hosting teammates at an upscale Manhattan restaurant.

TMZ Sports reports that New York Giants cornerback Deonte Banks treated several teammates to a private dinner at Sei Less, a hotspot in New York City, after his game-winning interception Sunday night.

The players dined on chicken satay, lobster spoons, Beijing chicken, chicken wontons, and shrimp lo mein in a rented private room. The group included Kayvon Thibodeaux, Abdul Carter, Jevon Holland, Tremaine Edmunds, and Nic Jones, among others.

The Play

With 12 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Cardinals faced fourth-and-goal from the 4-yard line, down by six. Banks intercepted Jacoby Brissett's pass and returned it 96 yards for a touchdown, sealing a 36-24 Giants win.

The Missed Dinner

Not every Giant could attend. Quarterback Jaxson Dart was at home recovering from knee surgery. His girlfriend Melissa Ayers caught his pumped reaction to Banks' interception on camera. He missed the chicken satay, but got the win.
