New York Giants Reach Massive Extension With Top Offensive Tackle

 

The New York Giants have had a very big few days, as they have now officially followed up the one-year deal for star running back Saquon Barkley by handing out a long, lucrative deal to one of their best all around players.

After drafting him No. 4 overall back in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Giants have now handed a five-year, $117.5 million deal to left tackle Andrew Thomas, with $67 million of that fully guaranteed, a deal that will keep him in New York until the end of the 2029 campaign.

Thomas has steadily improved every year he's been in the NFL, culminating in a second-team All-Pro selection for the 2022 NFL season, and now he has been handsomely rewarded for being one of the most reliable players on this team since being drafted.
