2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thibodeaux's 2024 campaign was by some measures a disappointment following his breakthrough 2023 season. The edge rusher's sack total fell from 11.5 to 5.5, and he missed five contests due to a wrist injury. The Giants bolstered their edge-rush unit during the offseason by signing veteran Chauncey Golston and drafting Abdul Carter, which could lead to less snaps for Thibodeaux. That said, the additions should also provide better matchups for Thibodeaux, so a big sack total is certainly possible. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $31.34 million contract with the Giants in May of 2022. Giants exercised $14.75 million team option for 2026 in April of 2025.
Out for Monday night
Thibodeaux (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Oregon product logged consecutive DNPs to begin the Giants' week of practice and is now in line to miss his third game in a row due to a shoulder injury. While Thibodeaux remains sidelined Monday, expect 2025 first-round pick Abdul Carter and Brian Burns to operate as the Giants' top edge rushers.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unlikely to be dealt
The Giants have told teams they aren't interested in trading Thibodeaux, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Thibodeaux was projected to become expendable after the team selected Abdul Carter third overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. Instead, Thibodeaux has both out-snapped and out-produced the rookie in the first half of the season. Thibodeaux will head into the final year of his rookie contract in 2026, and the team's stance on a trade suggests the Giants may be interested in signing him to an extension.
