Injuries to Shane Lemieux, Jamil Douglas sting already thin Giants O-line

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Injuries to Giants guards Shane Lemieux and Jamil Douglas may have decimated the depth of an already thin offensive line.

Lemieux, the club’s starting left guard, suffered a toe injury during the game’s first series. He needed a walking boot to stand on the sideline after.

And Douglas, a free agent signing at second-string right guard, hurt his ankle in the second quarter and didn’t return to the sideline for the second half.

Rookie corner Cor’Dale Flott (groin) also got hurt after playing both outside and inside in his NFL preseason debut.
