New York Giants starting left guard Jon Runyan (ankle, shoulder) was limited to individual drills at last week's mandatory minicamp, according to The Athletic's Dan Duggan. Runyan is believed to have undergone surgery to fix a separate shoulder after last season, although he's making progress and could be ready to rejoin the team in workouts at training camp at the end of July. After his cameo at practice last week, Evan Neal took over as the team's first-team left guard. In addition to having surgery on his shoulder, Runyan apparently had surgery on his right ankle to fix a torn ligament. The 27-year-old's injuries caused him to be sidelined for the final four games of the 2024 season. Runyan started all 13 games he appeared in last year and also started all 34 regular-season games in his final two years in Green Bay in 2022 and 2023.
Former Green Bay Packers offensive guard Jon Runyan agreed to a three-year, $30 million deal on Monday with the New York Giants, including $17 million guaranteed at signing, according to his agents, Drew Rosenhaus and Kyle Lincoln. Runyan was the Packers' sixth-round pick in 2020 out of Michigan, and started 50 of the 67 games that he played in in his first four years in the NFL. The 26-year-old hasn't missed a single game since entering the league in 2020, so the G-Men are looking for some much-needed stability for an offensive line that was absolutely atrocious and unhealthy in 2023. Runyan became a full-time starter of the Packers in his second year in 2021 and has started 50 of the last 51 regular-season games since. He started all 17 games at right guard in 2023 and is likely to start there for the Giants, too.
Packers Grab Depth at Offensive Line With Jon Runyan
The Green Bay Packers have selected Michigan offensive guard/tackle Jon Runyan with the No. 192 selection during the 2020 NFL Draft. Runyan did very well during the NFL Combine, which likely raised his draft stock. He isn't very athletic but has plenty of experience. Runyan won't start in Green Bay this season, but he gives the team some nice depth up front.
