Giants Edge Kayvon Thibodeaux is eligible to return from IR ahead of this week's game against the Panthers in Germany. But HC Brian Daboll told reporters Monday that he doesn't expect Thibodeaux to be activated for Week 10. The edge starter has missed the past four games following surgery to repair a wrist fracture.
The Giants' Week 11 bye means that you should expect Thibodeaux to remain out until at least Week 12.
The pass rush has fared fine without him, thanks to surprising production from Edge Azeez Ojulari
The fourth-year former second-round pick has seen a jump in playing time and delivered 5 sacks and 6 QB hits over the past four games.
Ojulari makes for a nice IDP option in the upside matchup with Carolina.
Thibodeaux's an OK stash for post-bye matchups with Tampa Bay and then Dallas. We'll see about his status heading into Week 12.
