OT Cam Fleming – DUD

Sunday was a bit of a disaster for Fleming.

The Giants’ starting right tackle played every snap, but was among the weakest links of the offensive line, committing three penalties.

Fleming’s third penalty of the game nullified a McCoy pass to Gallman that would have produced a first down that allowed the Giants to kneel out the waning seconds remaining.

After rookie Matt Peart tested positive for COVID-19 following the Giants’ win over the Eagles two weeks ago and was unable to play Sunday, the Giants weren’t able to rotate offensive tackles as they had in recent weeks. However, given Fleming’s recent struggles, there’s a chance that Peart will push for the starting job once he’s healthy enough to. Especially after Fleming’s performance in Cincinnati.
