New York Giants pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux underwent wrist surgery on Wednesday and is not expected to play Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.
NFL Network reported Thibodeaux suffered a broken scaphoid bone in his wrist. Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Thibodeaux is week-to-week.
“I’m encouraged with what I’ve heard but, again, you never know,” Daboll said of Thibodeaux.
Daboll also said rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers (concussion) “is doing better” and is considered day-to-day. Nabers was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, working outside with trainers for the first time since sustaining the concussion against the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 26.
Giants running back Devin Singletary (groin) was also a limited participant on Wednesday.
Thibodeaux, 23, has two sacks and seven quarterback hits in five starts. He had 11.5 sacks in 17 games (all starts) in 2023.
The 21-year-old Nabers has 35 catches for 386 yards and three touchdowns in four games since being selected by New York with the sixth overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft out of LSU.
