The New York Giants know change is coming, and at some point this season, Jaxson Dart will take over under center.

Thomas is more than just a stabilizing presence — he’s the cornerstone of an offensive line that desperately needs balance.

Without him, the line has been shaky, exposing quarterbacks to relentless pressure and forcing the playbook to shrink drastically.
