Giants rookie Kayvon Thibodeaux reportedly out 3-4 weeks after suffering sprained MCL after cut block

New York Giants rookie defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux said he was “good” after he left a preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night after taking a hit directly to his right knee. While not dire, the medical diagnosis wasn't so upbeat, as the Giants said he suffered a sprained MCL, an injury that is expected to sideline the former Oregon Ducks star 3-4 weeks, according to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Thibodeaux was cut-blocked by Bengals tight end Thaddeus Moss in the second quarter, and went down grabbing his knee.
