The Giants continue to give unexplainable chances to oft-injured offensive guard

The New York Giantsoffensive line faltered once more in Week 3, especially against the defensive might of the San Francisco 49ers. Out of the 17 pressures that the line yielded, Shane Lemieux, the 26-year-old fifth-round draft choice from Oregon, stood out for the wrong reasons.

Since his rookie season, injuries have plagued Lemieux. He managed to log 504 snaps in 2020 and only played a meager 17 snaps in 2021, followed by 39 snaps in the subsequent year. Come Thursday night, he took center stage, but with over 50 snaps, his performance was far from satisfactory.
