Solder (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Solder's move to the COVID list means he'll likely miss the Giants' matchup with the Eagles on Sunday. Assuming he were to miss, Matt Peart would likely draw the start at right tackle.

Solder and the Giants agreed in principle to a restructured contract Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The details of Solder's deal are unclear. The 32-year-old's contract was set to cost $16.5 million and $18 million against the salary cap over the next two seasons, respectively. There's likely a significant decrease to those figures, at least for the 2021 season, and the Giants will gain continuity at left tackle as a result.

Jordan Ranaan of ESPN.com reports Solder recently told the network in a phone conversation he intends on playing in 2021.
EDGE Analysis
Solder was considered a high-risk opt-out for the 2020 campaign, but the 32-year-old intends on rejoining the Giants. The return of the 2011 first-round draft pick will likely provide a notable boost to the team's offensive line.

Solder announced on his personal Twitter page Wednesday that he opted out of the 2020 campaign.
EDGE Analysis
Citing health concerns within his family, Solder has "chosen to pause for this season." As the starting left tackle for the Giants under normal circumstances, he'll leave a huge void as Daniel Jones' blindside protector. More than likely, 2020 fourth overall pick Andrew Thomas will take over for Solder.

Coach Pat Shurmur said Thursday that he's optimistic Solder (concussion) will clear the league's protocol for head injuries this week, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Giants typically have players meet with an independent neurologist during the week's last practice session, so a final word on Solder's availability for Week 12 may not come until Friday. If he indeed manages to receive full clearance, Solder will draw his usual start at left tackle during Sunday's tilt against the Bears.

Solder suffered a concussion and is ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
The Giants are banged up on their offensive front, so they'll likely need to bump Nick Gates over to tackle in Solder's place.
