The New York Giants offensive line has the same job regardless of who’s playing QB

On Monday, the New York Giants will start Eli Manning at quarterback for the first time since Sept. 15. Rookie Daniel Jones is out with a high ankle sprain suffered in the Week 13 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Jones is expected to miss 2-4 weeks, as Manning could be receiving a farewell tour.

Thus, the Giants offense may change a little, as Manning isn’t as mobile as Jones is. However, it’s not going to alter the ultimate job of the offensive line. The front-five understands that their assignment is still the same, regardless of which quarterback they’re blocking for.
