Perhaps as protection in case Andrew Thomas’ foot injury sidelined him on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, the New York Giants raised offensive tackle Korey Cunningham from their practice team.
Cunningham, 6-foot-6, 311 pounds, joined the practice squad on September 7, a week after being released by the New England Patriots. He entered the NFL as a seventh-round pick in 2018 by the Arizona Cardinals, from the University of Cincinnati. As a rookie, he started each of Arizona’s last six games on left tackle.
Cunningham was traded to the Patriots on August 29, 2019 and has played one game this season and 11 games in 2020 for New England.
The Giants also announced that veteran offensive line Jonotthan Harrison, who was raised the previous two weeks, suffered an Achilles tendon injury.
If Thomas can’t play, Nate Solder and Matt Peart would be the starting tackles with Cunningham in reserve.
