A steady, durable interior lineman who has anchored the Giants' offensive line since 2024.
Jon Runyan Jr. built his reputation in Green Bay as a reliable, low-drama starter before signing a three-year, $30 million deal with the Giants. The son of former NFL tackle Jon Runyan, he brings the kind of consistency offensive coordinators build a line around.
Path to the league
Runyan started at offensive tackle for Michigan from 2015 to 2019, earning first-team All-Big Ten honors as both a junior and a senior. The Green Bay Packers picked him in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, 192nd overall, and he moved inside to guard as a pro.
Career highlights
Runyan spent four seasons with the Packers before signing with the Giants in 2024. He has been one of the more durable linemen in the league, appearing in 96 career games with 79 starts, and pass-protection metrics have consistently ranked him among the better run-blocking guards at his position.
2025 season recap
Runyan's 2024 season with the Giants ended early after he suffered a high-ankle sprain and a torn deltoid ligament in Week 14, which required surgery in January 2025. He worked to return to the lineup for the Giants in 2025 after that rehab.
