Andrew Thomas Goes the Distance in Giants' Win, Sets Sights on Saints

Coaches are managing his workload ahead of the New Orleans trip.

Overview

  • The All-Pro left tackle played all 76 offensive snaps in the 22-18 victory over the Chargers in Jaxson Dart’s first NFL start.
  • Thomas said he felt normal soreness and pointed to conditioning as the main adjustment, noting his lungs were more tired than anything.
  • With the starting five together for every play, New York posted a season-high 161 rushing yards, though Dart was sacked six times.
  • OC Mike Kafka called it a gritty effort and said Thomas looked like his normal self, and Brian Daboll emphasized taking care of him during the week.
  • Preparing for the Saints on a short week, Thomas highlighted communication against a veteran front that often uses five-man looks.
