New York Giants rookie Kayvon Thibodeaux has a sprained MCL, the team announced Monday after initial testing on the defensive end’s right knee. He is expected to miss three to four weeks, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Thibodeaux’s right ACL and meniscus were intact, and the Giants say they remain hopeful the first-round pick will be ready for their regular-season opener against the Tennessee Titans on Sept. 11, the source told Schefter.
It’s a race against time. There are 20 days until the first Sunday of the season.
