The New York Giants have had a habitual problem protecting QB Daniel Jones, one of the most-sacked quarterbacks since being drafted in 2019. They won’t have an easier time when they face the Pittsburgh Steelers this weekend. Not only do they have to contend with T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith, they could do it without both their starting tackles. Left tackle Andrew Thomas is already out for the season and now right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor’s status is in jeopardy after popping up with a groin injury.
Per beat writer Jordan Raanan, Giants head coach Brian Daboll is “hopeful” Eluemunor can play against the Steelers.
