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 • 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.
