There were calls for the New York Giants to reshuffle their offensive line stretching back into the preseason — usually involving moving Justin Pugh to one of the tackle positions.
That is exactly what happened when right tackle Bobby Hart aggravated an ankle injury on the Giants’ second offensive play. He had been attempting to play through the injury, which he suffered early in the season opener, but it just wasn’t to be.
With Hart out of the game, the Giants moved Justin Pugh from left guard to right tackle — where he began his Giants’ career — and brought back-up interior lineman Brett Jones on to fill the new vacancy at guard.
