Seattle Seahawks edit

Glowinski was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in the fourth round, 134th overall, of the 2015 NFL draft.[3][4]

In 2016, Glowinski earned the starting left guard spot, starting all 16 games for the Seahawks.

Glowinski entered the 2017 season as the Seahawks' starting right guard, starting the first two games before losing the starting job to Oday Aboushi. The other guard spot was taken by the veteran Luke Joeckel with the primary backup spot taken by rookie Ethan Pocic, moving Glowinski to fourth on the depth chart at guard. After an injury to Aboushi, followed by the emergence of the rookie Pocic as a starter opposite Joeckel, Glowinski was waived by the Seahawks on December 16, 2017.[5]

Indianapolis Colts edit

On December 18, 2017, Glowinski was claimed off waivers by the Indianapolis Colts.[6]

After beginning the season as a backup, Glowinski was named the starting right guard in Week 6 following a season-ending injury to Matt Slauson. He then started nine of the final 11 games.

On January 29, 2019, Glowinski signed a three-year, $18 million contract extension with the Colts through the 2021 season.[7]

New York Giants edit

On March 17, 2022, Glowinski signed a three-year deal worth $20 million contract with the New York Giants.[8]

On September 17, 2023, Glowinski was benched after a poor performance against the Dallas Cowboys Week 1 of the 2023 season. Marcus McKethan was named the starting right guard for Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals.

Glowinski was released by the Giants on March 4, 2024.[9]
