Overview
Andrew Thomas started at left tackle in the Giants' Week 1 win over Dallas, a full participant on the injury report despite a lingering shoulder issue that had limited him in some spring practice. Availability, more than performance, has defined his last three seasons.
The Giants drafted Thomas fourth overall out of Georgia in 2020 and signed him to a five-year, $117.5 million extension in July 2023 that included an offensive-line-record $67 million guaranteed. Since then, he has missed time to a hamstring injury in 2023, a Lisfranc fracture that ended his 2024 season, and the same foot injury that cost him the first two games of 2025.
When healthy in 2025, Thomas graded elite: a 90.3 overall grade from Pro Football Focus, fourth among all tackles, with 13 pressures and one sack allowed all season. The Giants restructured his contract this offseason, converting salary into a roster bonus to free roughly $6.46 million in cap space, on a deal that runs through 2029.
