OCTOBER 9, 2024 GIANTS INJURY REPORT – WRIST SURGERY FOR KAYVON THIBODEAUX…
WR Malik Nabers (concussion), OG Greg Van Roten (veteran rest day), OG Jon Runyan, Jr. (illness), and OLB Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) did not practice on Wednesday.
RB Devin Singletary (groin), OLB Brian Burns (groin), CB Adoree’ Jackson (calf), and CB Dru Phillips (calf/shoulder) were limited in practice.
Thibodeaux underwent wrist surgery today on what The NFL Network is reporting is a fractured scaphoid bone. “I’d say it’s week-to-week,” said Head Coach Brian Daboll, who also said Thibodeaux was injured during last Sunday’s game. “I’m not going to give you a timeline or anything like that. I would just say he’s week-to-week. I’m encouraged with what I’ve heard. But again, you never know.”
When asked about Nabers, Daboll replied, “He’s doing better. He’s still in the protocol. He’ll do some stuff off to the side outside with the training staff today. So, day-to-day.”
ISAIAH SIMMONS AWARDED “NFC SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK”…
New York Giants linebacker/defensive back Isaiah Simmons has been awarded “NFC Special Teams Player of the Week” for his performance against the Seattle Seahawks last Sunday. In that game, Simmons blocked a potential game-tying field goal late in the contest that was returned for a touchdown by wide receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton.
