Kayvon Thibodeaux

The Athletic’s Dan Duggan writes that he “expects” the Giants to pick up Kayvon Thibodeaux’s fifth-year option.

Duggan hypothesizes that the Giants will pick up the option despite saying “Thibodeaux hasn’t made the impact that was expected when he was the fifth pick in the 2022 draft.” Through three seasons, Thibodeaux has 23 NFL sacks and 78 hurries. He’s been a solid EDGE player, but it’s probably fair to say he hasn’t quite lived up to being the No. 5 pick in the draft yet. The 24-year-old will look to take a step forward in 2025 next to Brian Burns.
