The New York Giants need Andrew Thomas like a fish needs water. It's not hyperbolic to suggest this offensive line completely craters without its star offensive lineman, and now we might have more insight as to why.
Thomas, forever marred by injuries, has widely been considered one of the most talented tackles in the NFL... when healthy. The unfortunate bit there is, well, he's not healthy often. This past season, it was a Lisfranc injury in Week 6 that kept him sidelined for the rest of the season.
Even with the injury, Thomas’ spot among the league’s best remains unquestioned.
