Head coach Brian Daboll originally stated that Thibodeaux was "week-to-week" after wrist surgery, but he'll now miss a minimum of four games on injured reserve.
Thibodeaux, the Giants' leader in sacks with 11.5, will be missed despite his recent individual stats of two sacks and 12 tackles.
Dexter Lawrence expressed confidence in Azeez Ojulari, stating, "I don't think Azeez is a dropoff. I think he's very capable of holding his own" in Thibodeaux's absence.
With Thibodeaux's absence, Azeez Ojulari, whose rookie year showed promise with eight sacks, has a significant opportunity to prove himself before free agency.
