The New York Giants released their unofficial depth chart on Monday afternoon, which brought some surprises. It is important to note that it isn’t finalized, and the Giants will still be working out there starting units leading up to their week one matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers on September 14.
Three major takeaways from the New York Giants’ unofficial depth chart:
1.) Andrew Thomas will play at left tackle
The Giants have cross-trained Andrew Thomas at both left and right tackle this off-season, giving him the tools to swap sides if need be. However, their unofficial depth chart lists him at left tackle, which means incumbent Cameron Fleming will fill the right tackle spot. When you spend a top-five overall pick on an offensive lineman, it better be to play left tackle. Thomas won’t miss any time jumping into the fire, as he faces off against TJ Watt in week one against the Steelers.
