2024 Fantasy Outlook
In his sophomore campaign, Thibodeaux fulfilled the promise the Giants saw in him when they drafted him fifth overall in 2022, as he tied for 12th in the NFL with 11.5 sacks. He did sputter out a bit late in the campaign - he had only a half sack over five games following the team's Week 13 bye - but the overall picture he painted was of a potentially dominant pass rusher for years to come. New York's addition of Brian Burns via trade in the offseason should improve Thibodeaux's outlook further, as opponents will have a harder time double-teaming him with Burns now in the fold.

Doesn't expect to play at Carolina
Coach Brian Daboll said Monday that he doesn't expect Thibodeaux (wrist) to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the Panthers in Munich, Germany, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
All signs are pointing to Thibodeaux missing his fifth straight contest in Week 10 as he continues to nurse a broken wrist. The Giants are scheduled for a bye in Week 11, so his next chance to suit up should come in Week 12 versus the Buccaneers.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Thibodeaux didn't rack up sacks like some expected him to in his rookie campaign, but he still demonstrated the ability to be a dominant NFL defender. The fifth overall pick in the 2022 Draft logged a modest four sacks, but he also registered 40 pressures, 25 hurries and five batted passes along with 49 tackles. Thibodeaux is unquestionably a big part of the Giants' future, and he'll be given every opportunity to grow into an elite pass rusher. He'll likely become even more of an IDP asset in fantasy as he further learns the intricacies of the NFL game.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May not be ready for Week 10
Thibodeaux said it would be ambitious for him to return from injured reserve when first eligible, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Thibodeaux is dealing with a wrist injury that was expected to sideline him for 4-to-6 weeks. The earliest he could return from IR would be Week 10, the shorter end of that timeline, but that now appears overly optimistic. Azeez Ojulari has taken over pass-rushing duties in his place and has tallied 3.0 sacks across his last two games.
