The New York Giants have made aggressive efforts to rebuild the offensive line the past two season, with general manager Dave Gettleman setting a record-breaking contract with left tackle Nate Solder’s four-year, $62 million deal (Spotrac).
He then spent a high second-round pick on Will Hernandez and recently traded the team’s best pass-rusher for right guard, Kevin Zeitler. Several weeks later they upgraded the right tackle position with Mike Remmers over Chad Wheeler.
Veteran quarterback Eli Manning will be the benefactor of these improvements, however, he will have to shake off years of wear and tear and muscle memory in what could be his final season.
