5 biggest NY Giants disappointments from the blowout loss to the Raiders
• Daniel Jones left the game early with a serious injury
• The Giants fear Danny Dimes tore his ACL
3. EDGE Kayvon Thibodeaux
Coming off a two-week tear in which he racked up five sacks, fans were hopeful that Kayvon Thibodeaux could continue to be a massive part of this defense. Despite this, Thibodeaux was a complete non-factor against the Raiders at Allegiant Stadium.
In this game, Thibodeaux racked up just a single tackle. While maybe PFF will register a few pressures for him, it won't change the fact that he didn't do a noteworthy thing during this matchup. The Raiders have a solid offensive line, but for Thibodeaux to be kept in check like this was not only surprising, but infuriating.
Thibodeaux was coming off his three-sack performance vs. the Jets, which included a forced fumble. On the year, he has 8.5 sacks to his name, more than doubling what he was able to produce in his rookie campaign. He'll need to flush this performance and try to be a beast for the showdown against the Cowboys this weekend.
