VIDEO: Kwon Alexander with the hit of the year so far

You would be hard-pressed to name things that are better than a great, legal hit in football. While spectacular runs and catches are fun, hits are still what this game is based around. It,s really the most exciting thing for fans to witness.

In the New York Jets' third preseason game on Sunday against the New York Giants, fans in attendance were treated to just that, courtesy of LB Kwon Alexander.

Indeed, on first down and 10 from their own 32 yard-line, the Giants snapped the ball and handed it off to RB Antonio Williams. The poor running back didn't stand a chance against the 227-pound Alexander.

Check it out from 3 different angles.
