  • Kayvon Thibodeaux, Azeez Ojulari Active On Monday

    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.

Meanwhile, Ojulari is looking to build on his impressive 49 tackles, eight sacks, and one forced fumble as a rookie last season.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux, Azeez Ojulari Inactive For Week 2

    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.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux Doubtful To Play In Week 2

    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.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux "Really Confident" He Will Debut In Week 2

    New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) is "really confident" in making his NFL debut in Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers. He continues to recover from an MCL sprain he suffered in mid-August and is trending towards the right direction of suiting up against Carolina. "Getting close," Thibodeaux said Thursday. "Like I said, trying not to look too far what is today? Today is Thursday - still have Friday and Saturday. I'm really confident in this Sunday." The No. 5 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft participated in some drills on Thursday and was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Thibodeaux will look to log a full session on Friday and could make his debut this Sunday. Stay tuned.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux, Azeez Ojulari Inactive For Week 1

    New York Giants linebackers Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) and Azeez Ojulari (calf) are both inactive for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans. Their absences could prove to be quite negative for the New York defense, all while giving the Titans' playmakers some additional fantasy value. Specifically, this news bodes well for the outlooks of Ryan Tannehill and Derrick Henry.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux Doubtful Versus Tennessee

    New York Giants defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) is a game-time call for the Week 1 opener versus the Titans. However, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the rookie isn't expected to play. Thibodeaux suffered a sprained MCL during the preseason and was projected to miss three to four weeks, so his anticipated absence on Sunday isn't a surprise. With that said, the Giants are in trouble on the defensive side of the ball, as linebacker Azeez Ojulari (calf) is also doubtful. Fortunately for IDP managers, both men could be ready to roll in Week 2.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux To Miss 3-4 Weeks With MCL Sprain

    Initial tests on New York Giants rookie first-round defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) showed a sprained MCL that is expected to keep him out for three to four weeks, according to a source. The good news is that Thibodeaux's ACL and meniscus are intact. The Giants are hopeful that he'll be ready to play in the Week 1 regular season opener against the Tennessee Titans, according to a source. We're skeptical that the 21-year-old fifth overall pick will be ready for the regular season opener, and fantasy managers in IDP leagues should adjust accordingly. The good news is that the Giants won't lose Thibodeaux for a significant amount of time to begin his rookie season in the NFL.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux Undergoing Tests Monday

    New York Giants first-round rookie defensive lineman Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) suffered a right knee injury in the preseason game on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals and is going for tests on Monday. Thibodeaux was able to walk off the field under his own power, though, and there's optimism from the Giants that he avoided a major injury, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. "I'll be back. We're good," Thibodeaux said after the game on Sunday. Before he left the game, the fifth overall pick played 15 defensive snaps, logging one tackle. Even if the 21-year-old pass rusher's injury isn't all that serious, it doesn't mean he'll be ready to go for the Week 1 regular season opener.

  • Giants Optimistic Kayvon Thibodeaux Avoided Serious Injury

    New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) won't return to Sunday's preseason bout versus the Cincinnati Bengals. The rookie suffered a knee injury in the first half and was quickly ruled out. Fortunately, he was seen laughing and joking with teammates after sustaining the injury. There's also optimism within the Giants' camp he avoided anything serious. Nevertheless, a definitive update should come soon. However, even if there is good news, Thibodeaux likely won't be seen again until the regular season.

  • Kayvon Thibodeaux Injures Knee

    New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) exited Sunday's preseason matchup against Cincinnati with a knee issue. He will not return. Fortunately, the 2022 No. 5 overall pick was seen laughing and joking with teammates after the injury, so there's a good chance it isn't too serious. Nevertheless, the team should have an update on his condition soon. However, IDP managers, especially those in dynasty formats, shouldn't change a thing regarding his fantasy expectations, at least until more information is released.
