Packers Floated as Suitor for Giants’ Kayvon Thibodeaux

The proposal highlights how Green Bay needs pass-rush help after injuries and departures thinned the edge group.

Overview

  • Moe Moton of Bleacher Report urged Green Bay to explore a trade for Kayvon Thibodeaux as a long-term partner for Micah Parsons.
  • Analysts frame the idea as insurance for Parsons’ ACL recovery and a response to the losses of Rashan Gary via trade and Kingsley Enagbare in free agency.
  • Thibodeaux’s profile is boom-or-bust, with 11.5 sacks in 2023 but only 2.5 in 10 games last season, which Moton cautions makes him a risky reclamation bet.
  • Moton suggested a Day 2 pick as a possible price, though reporting notes Green Bay’s draft capital is tight after the Parsons deal and no talks have been confirmed.
  • New York’s depth and investments on the edge — headlined by Brian Burns and first-rounder Abdul Carter — could make Thibodeaux more movable, according to the coverage.
