Done for the year The Giants placed Thibodeaux (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Thibodeaux will miss the remainder of the 2025 campaign due to a shoulder injury he initially sustained Week 10, and which has prevented him from playing since. With Thibodeaux sidelined for New York's final three games, rookie first-round pick Abdul Carter will continue handling a starting role alongside Brian Burns.

Remains out Sunday Thibodeaux (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact The 2022 first-round pick from Oregon didn't practice throughout the week and is now in line to miss his fifth game in a row due to a shoulder injury. In 10 appearances this season, Thibodeaux has tallied 25 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, and two passes defensed. While he remains sidelined in Week 16, expect rookie Abdul Carter to start opposite Brian Burns.

Unavailable for practice Thibodeaux (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Thibodeaux has been sidelined for the team's last four contests while nursing a shoulder issue, and he has yet to return to practice. If the 25-year-old is going to play in Week 16, he'll likely have to return to practice in some capacity before Sunday's matchup with the Vikings.

Ruled out for Week 15 Thibodeaux (shoulder) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Thibodeaux hasn't suited up since Week 10 versus the Bears, and even coming out of New York's bye in Week 14, there's not yet any indication that he's close to retaking the field. As long as Thibodeaux remains sidelined, rookie first-round pick Abdul Carter will operate as one of the Giants' top pass rushers alongside Brian Burns.

DECEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined at practice Thibodeaux (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Thibodeaux's last game action took place in Week 10 against Chicago. He hasn't practiced since, and his continued absence following New York's Week 14 bye doesn't bode well for his chance of returning to action this Sunday against the Commanders. Still, the Giants have opted to not put Thibodeaux on IR to this point, suggesting that they believe he isn't going to remain out for a substantial amount of additional time.

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.

Impact 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.

Absent Thursday Thibodeaux (shoulder) did not participate in Thursday's estimated practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Thibodeaux has already missed consecutive games due to a shoulder injury, and Thursday's estimated practice does not boost confidence in the defensive end's chances to suit up for Monday's game against the Patriots. For Thibodeaux to have a chance to play, he would need to log participation of some kind in Friday's practice.

Remains sidelined in Week 12 Thibodeaux (shoulder) won't play Sunday against the Lions, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Thibodeaux will miss a second consecutive game, diminishing the Giants' pass rush against Jared Goff and the Lions. The 2022 first-round draft pick's next chance to play will come Dec. 1 against the Patriots. Thibodeaux has just 2.5 sacks in 2025, with none coming since Week 4.

Won't practice Wednesday Thibodeaux (shoulder) will not practice Wednesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact The 24-year-old missed the Giants' Week 11 loss to the Packers due to a shoulder injury, and his absence Wednesday suggest that he's still dealing with the issue. Thibodeaux likely needs to log at least a limited practice session Thursday or Friday in order to have a chance at playing in the Week 12 matchup against the Lions. If he's inactive for the second consecutive game, Abdul Carter will likely draw another start at outside linebacker.

Out for Sunday Thibodeaux (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.

Impact Thibodeaux didn't practice all week and is now in line to miss his first game of the season due to a shoulder injury. The Oregon product is an integral part of the Giants' defense, recording 25 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, and two passes defended across 10 appearances this season. While he's sidelined in Week 11, expect 2025 first-round pick Abdul Carter to start opposite Brian Burns.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

No practice to begin week Thibodeaux (shoulder) was estimated to have not practiced Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Thibodeaux played his typical allotment of snaps in Sunday's loss to the Bears, leaving it unclear when he suffered the injury. The Giants only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so Thibodeaux's status for Week 11 should become clearer in the next two days.
