Heading into his inaugural season in the pros, Matt Peart‘s developmental process has certainly undergone an acceleration. With Nate Solder opting out of the upcoming 2020 campaign amid the lingering COVID-19 pandemic, every New York Giants offensive tackle has moved up one spot on the depth chart, Peart included.
