Kayvon Thibodeaux Fantasy Stats

According to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, the New York Giants are expected to pick up the fifth-year option on linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux. Duggan noted that while Thibodeaux has shown flashes of elite upside, he has not made the impact the team had hoped, given that he was selected with the fifth-overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. As a result, Duggan expects the team to pick up his option instead of discussing a long-term contract. After tallying just four sacks with 48 tackles in his rookie season, Thibodeaux enjoyed a massive sophomore season where he tallied 11.5 sacks. In that season, he totaled 50 tackles and three forced fumbles. However, in 2024, Thibodeaux took a step back as he logged just 5.5 sacks with 28 tackles. Fantasy managers should expect Thibodeaux to have a starting role in the New York defense next season.

New York Giants edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) has been activated from Injured Reserve ahead of Week 12 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 23-year-old is technically listed as questionable, but he's expected to play on Sunday now that New York has elevated him to its 53-man roster. Thibodeaux, who is coming off two full practices, hasn't played since Week 5 against Seattle. Through a handful of contests earlier in the year, he registered 12 tackles and two sacks. His presence will be key as the Giants look to slow down Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers this weekend.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said on Wednesday that the team is opening the 21-day practice window for linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) to return from Injured Reserve, and the team is hopeful that he can play on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12. Thibodeaux missed a fifth straight game in Week 10 due to a broken wrist, but after having last week's bye to rest up, the 23-year-old could return for New York's defense. The former fifth overall pick in 2022 out of Oregon will be a welcomed addition as they look to slow down a Bucs defense this weekend that could be getting star wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) back. Through five games in 2024 in his third NFL season, Thibodeaux has provided only 12 tackles (eight solo), two sacks and seven QB hits for the G-Men.

The New York Giants will place linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) on Injured Reserve on Saturday, according to source. Thibodeaux broke the scaphoid bone in his wrist in last week's win over the Seattle Seahawks and will now miss at least the next four games. A source said Thibodeaux has a four- to six-week timeline. If he only misses the required four games, Thibodeaux could return for a Week 10 date against the Carolina Panthers. But with the Giants having their bye in Week 11, there's a better chance that we don't see him again until Week 12 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 23-year-old had surgery on his wrist on Wednesday. The former fifth overall pick in 2022 out of Oregon had only 12 tackles (eight solo), two sacks, three tackles for loss and seven QB hits in five games into his third NFL season before getting injured. Azeez Ojulari and Patrick Johnson will be expected to step up with bigger workloads with Thibodeaux out for the G-Men.

New York Giants standout pass-rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) suffered a fractured scaphoid bone in his wrist in the Week 5 win over the Seattle Seahawks and had surgery on Wednesday, according to a source. Head coach Brian Daboll described Thibodeaux as "week-to-week." After having surgery, it seems unlikely that Thibodeaux will be able to suit up for Sunday night's game against the visiting Cincinnati Bengals in Week 6. The 23-year-old has been making a big impact for New York's defense so far in 2024, so any time missed will surely be a downgrade for their unit, especially against a Bengals offense that finally appears to be clicking after getting off to a slow start this year. Thibodeaux, the fifth overall pick in 2022 out of Oregon, has 12 tackles (eight solo), two sacks, three tackles for loss and seven QB hits so far through five games.

New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Dallas Cowboys. The 2022 No. 5 overall pick, who entered Week 10 with a team-high 8.5 sacks, suffered a concussion before he was ultimately ruled out. Of course, IDP fantasy managers will anxiously await an update, considering the injury could keep him out in Week 11 for the NFC East showdown against the Washington Commanders.

New York Giants pass-rushers Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) and Azeez Ojulari (calf) are both active for Monday Night Football against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys in Week 3. Both players came into this contest listed as questionable, but they will suit up as the G-Men look to stay perfect on the season. Thibodeaux, the No. 5 overall pick, will be making his NFL debut against after he sprained his right MCL in the second preseason game. Against a suspect Cowboys offensive line, the 21-year-old pass-rusher could make an immediate impact for the Giants defense. Ojulari will also be making his 2022 season debut after getting injured in August.

New York Giants linebackers Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) and Azeez Ojulari (calf) are both expected to play in Week 3 despite being listed as questionable, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Both players missed the first two weeks of the season but should be on the field for Monday night's divisional clash with the Dallas Cowboys. For Thibodeaux, Monday marks his NFL debut after an impressive collegiate career at Oregon. Meanwhile, Ojulari is looking to build on his impressive 49 tackles, eight sacks, and one forced fumble as a rookie last season.

New York Giants linebackers Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) and Azeez Ojulari (calf) are officially inactive for Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers. This comes as no surprise considering both players were listed as doubtful heading into the weekend. Thibodeaux, who was also inactive last Sunday, will have to wait at least one more week to make his NFL debut. Ozulari, who totaled 49 tackles, eight sacks, and one forced fumble as a rookie in 2021, was also inactive last week.

New York Giants rookie linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) has been listed as doubtful ahead of the team's Week 2 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Thibodeaux suffered a sprained MCL in the preseason that kept him sidelined in Week 1 and said on Thursday that he felt "really confident" in making his first regular season appearance on Sunday. Unfortunately, it seems that he may be held out for at least one more game after practicing in a limited fashion all week. If he returns for Week 3, it will be an exciting debut in a Monday night divisional showdown with the Dallas Cowboys.
