The lack of Thomas is a big one for the Giants as he’s extensively believed to be their most indispensable participant.
Not solely is Thomas one of many NFL’s finest left tackles, he now leaves a void alongside the Giants’ offensive line that may seemingly trigger a weakening in two areas. Early expectations are that Jermaine Eluemunor will shift to the left facet, paving the best way for the return of embattled proper sort out Evan Neal.
If the Giants decide to move on a Neal return, Joshua Ezeudu may take over as the beginning at left sort out.
Neither choice is right.
Since signing a five-year, $117.5 million contract extension with $67 million assured in 2023, Thomas has appeared in 16 of a potential 23 video games. By the top of the season, it is going to be 16 of a potential 34 video games. He had missed simply 5 whole video games previous to that.
