Pre-game updates
There were whispers this week about the possibility Marcus McKethan would start in place of Mark Glowinski at right guard. Looks like that’s the case.
Big shakeup on the Giants’ offensive line.
— Ralph Vacchiano (@RalphVacchiano) September 17, 2023
Josh Ezeudu in for the injured Andrew Thomas at LT.
Marcus McKethan, a fifth-round pick from 2022 who missed his rookie season with a torn ACL, replaces struggling veteran Mark Glowinski at RG.
(via pregame reports from Arizona)
Both teams will be without star players. For the Giants, left tackle Andrew Thomas (hamstring) won’t play. For the Cardinals, safety Budda Baker will sit out.
