Thibodeaux registered three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Saints. In addition to the sack, Thibodeaux had an additional quarterback hit and an additional tackle for loss. The sack came at a crucial time, as Thibodeaux brought down Saints QB Jake Haener on a second-down play with less than two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, leading to a New Orleans punt to give New York a shot at a late comeback. Sunday's sack was Thibodeaux's first since Week 5, though it's important to note that he missed Weeks 6-10 due to a wrist injury.

Thibodeaux (wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. The pass rusher was activated off injured reserve Saturday after missing the past five games with a broken scaphoid bone. Thibodeaux played on more than 70 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the five games he did play this season, recording 12 tackles (eight solo), including 2.0 sacks.

Thibodeaux (wrist) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Thibodeaux's first practice since being designated to return from injured reserve was a limited session, which suggests he could be nearing a return to the field. Head coach Brian Daboll told reporters Wednesday that he's "optimistic" Thibodeaux will play in the Giants' Week 12 matchup against the Buccaneers, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. However, the 2022 first-round pick from Oregon must still be activated to the Giants' active roster in order to suit up Sunday.

The Giants designated Thibodeaux (wrist) for return to practice from their injured reserve list Wednesday. Thibodeaux has been sidelined for the Giants' past five games recovering from surgery to repair a broken wrist, but it now looks like he's on pace to come back soon. Per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com, coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that the team is "optimistic" Thibodeaux will be able to play Sunday versus the Buccaneers.

Coach Brian Daboll said Monday that he doesn't expect Thibodeaux (wrist) to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the Panthers in Munich, Germany, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. All signs are pointing to Thibodeaux missing his fifth straight contest in Week 10 as he continues to nurse a broken wrist. The Giants are scheduled for a bye in Week 11, so his next chance to suit up should come in Week 12 versus the Buccaneers.
