Justin Pugh, offensive lineman for the New York Giants, played as left tackle in the team's recent game. Pugh's return to this position came as Joshua Ezeudu was questionable to return. The Giants had previously elevated Pugh from the injured reserve. This move suggests that the team has a role for Pugh, possibly as a swing tackle. The offensive line lineup for the Giants in the game was: LT Ezeudu, LG GLOWINSKI, C Bredeson, RG McKethan, and RT Neal. Pugh's performance in his first game back was noted by fans and commentators. The Giants were playing against the Buffalo Bills in this game.

#Giants began the game with 2 starting OL injured. Now they lost Ezeudu to a toe injury.

Just what the GIants DON'T need. Joshua Ezeudu is down --looks like a leg injury.

Giants O-line report. LT will be backup Josh Ezedudu (a college OG) LT will be Justin Pugh, signed 11 days ago last game was 1 year ago when he tore his ACL. C is 2nd stringer Ben Bredeson. RG is vet Mark Glowinski, previously benched earlier this year.
Still trying to figure out what #NYGiants will do on OL tonight. Mayfield signing to 53 leads me to believe they have a role for him. Wonder if he's locked in as swing tackle. Best guess: LT Ezeudu LG GLOWINSKI C Bredeson RG McKethan RT Neal Pugh plays if Lemieux has to go to⦠https://t.co/vItWtFISx7
Justin Pugh was part of a decimated offensive line last season with the Cardinals and he played only five games. He's now with another one and was elevated from the practice squad with the Giants yesterday.
Giants put Azeez Ojulari on IR, elevate Justin Pugh. https://t.co/7TuU7oXvyy
