Since the offseason ended, center David Baas restructured his contract to give the team more cap space. Right guard Chris and right tackle David Diehl are also under contract. The versatile Boothe started all 16 games at left guard last season, and the past 22 games overall.
Giants backup offensive lineman Kevin Boothe is going to be sidelined four months with a torn pectoral muscle.|||||||

Boothe is slated to start at guard for Oakland on Sunday after the rookie from Cornell played most of a Week 2 loss to Baltimore. Boothe relieved fellow rookie Paul McQuistan during that 28-6 loss and appears to have solidified his starting spot this week.|||||||
