Kayvon Thibodeaux Undergoing Tests Monday
2 years agoNew York Giants first-round rookie defensive lineman Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) suffered a right knee injury in the preseason game on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals and is going for tests on Monday. Thibodeaux was able to walk off the field under his own power, though, and there's optimism from the Giants that he avoided a major injury, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. "I'll be back. We're good," Thibodeaux said after the game on Sunday. Before he left the game, the fifth overall pick played 15 defensive snaps, logging one tackle. Even if the 21-year-old pass rusher's injury isn't all that serious, it doesn't mean he'll be ready to go for the Week 1 regular season opener.
