More bad news for the New York Giants.
The Giants, who have been battling injuries all season, just lost key OL Andrew Thomas for at least the next 3 weeks, per Dov Kleiman:
#Giants placed Left Tackle Andrew Thomas on injured reserve. He's out at least 3 weeks.

Thomas was a unanimous All-American and All-SEC player for Georgia in 2019. He was the first-round draft choice of the Giants in 2020.
He tried to return from an injury to his left foot, which made him sit out against the Dallas Cowboys a couple of weeks ago, Sunday against the LA Rams, but in the second quarter, he hurt his right ankle.
His presence was definitely missed as Giants QB Daniel Jones was sacked 4 times and was hit 7 times by the Rams’ defense.
The Giants have won only 1 game so far this season.
