New York Giants general manager Jerry Reese has been robustly criticized for not doing anything significant last offseason in an effort to improve what was an inadequate offensive line in 2016. That’s because it has, for the most part, been an inadequate offensive line this season as the Giants have fallen to 1-6.
The player most thought would be logical to pursue with quarterback Eli Manning playing at the age of 36, was 35-year-old Andrew Whitworth, a Pro Bowler in each of the past two seasons.
The Giants stood pat, though, and Whitworth signed a three-year, $33.
