New York Giants: The League’s Worst O-Line

Last year, no team in the NFC sported a worse offensive line than the New York Giants, per Pro Football Focus.

After veteran guard Kevin Zeitler left to sign with Baltimore this offseason, New York’s offensive front is now the worst in the entire league, per PFF’s Steve Palazzolo:

“Giants offensive linemen have combined to produce the fifth-worst overall grade in the league over the past two years, and they rank in the bottom eight in both pass blocking and run blocking. The bottom line is that the Giants’ offensive line is a massive question mark. They need their young players to develop and their veterans to provide career years just to rank in the middle of the pack for 2021.”

As things stand now, New York’s starting line could feature three starters who allowed double-digit sacks in their last season: tackles Nate Solder and Andrew Thomas and guard Zach Fulton.

Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is entering a make-or-break season, and the team aggressively added passing-game talent this offseason.

But improved receivers won’t help Jones much if he spends entire games running for his life.
