The New York Giants continue to lock up their core — aside from Saquon Barkley, but we all know that situation.

Anyway, the G-Men locked up the fourth overall selection from the 2020 NFL Draft in Andrew Thomas to a record-breaking five-year deal.

The former Georgia standout inked a $117.5 million contract just before the team began training camp on Wednesday, according to multiple reports.

Thomas, 24, is reportedly guaranteed $67 million, the most ever for an offensive lineman. It's also the most in an extension for a non-quarterback after just three NFL seasons.

"It's a blessing — something I work hard for and something I'm going to continue to work hard for to live up to that," Thomas said, via ESPN. "It's a blessing to my family — to my kids that I don't even have yet. I'm excited for it and excited to be here for a while."

The contract will begin in 2025, so Big Blue has their left tackle through 2029.

"We basically had him for two more years," general manager Joe Schoen said. "We had him this year and the fifth-year option. So, add in five on top of that and that gives him the chance to be a Giant for the rest of his career. But tackles are also playing a long time. It gives him a chance late, 31-years-old, to get another bite at the apple if he's still playing at a high level."
