This is the kind of play you want to see out of the All-Pro left tackle! While the NY Giants don't have much to play for against the Los Angeles Rams, don't tell that to Andrew Thomas and second-year wideout Wan'Dale Robinson.
In the second quarter, Big Blue tied things up against the Rams on a sweet run from Robinson, who would not be denied of an incredible score. If you watch the play closely, you see Thomas record one of the best blocks of the year. He straight up man-handled the LA defender on this play:

Wan'Dale Robinson scored an epic TD for the Giants vs. Los Angeles
Poor Jordan Fuller didn't have a prayer in trying to bring down Robinson - Thomas made sure of that. Thomas has been looking like his old self in recent weeks, but there's no doubt that his year has been hampered by the serious injury he suffered in Week 1 against the Cowboys.
Thomas suffered a hamstring injury after a Graham Gano field goal was blocked and he missed a large chunk of the campaign. However, that block on Fuller should be a fresh reminder of how amazing he can be for the NY offense.
As for Robinson, he was fired up after his TD. Can you blame him? The speedster has been more involved in the offense of late, which has been great to see. Despire the 2023 campaign not going according to plan for Big Blue, guys are still fighting their tails off for the fans in the stands.
Both Robinson and Thomas are going to be key pieces for the O moving forward. People at MetLife would love nothing more for the Giants to post an upset win too and ruin life for the Rams in Week 17.
