New York Giants OT Andrew Thomas has been working at right tackle this offseason and said he is starting to feel comfortable at the position. ‘You might be using your right leg for something that would maybe be different on the left side. It’s just getting used to that. But once I get a few repetitions at it, it’s just natural,’ Thomas said. Thomas is expected to start this upcoming season, but it is not known if he will play left tackle or right tackle.
