Texans re-signing veteran DT Folorunso Fatukasi
NEW YORK -- Edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux said he is "super excited" about the New York Giants' top draft pick, even if he plays the same position and could have a similar role.
The Giants took Abdul Carter with the third pick in this year's draft, adding him to a talented outside linebackers room that includes Thibodeaux, the No. 5 pick in 2022, and Pro Bowler Brian Burns. That doesn't concern Thibodeaux, who had the fifth-year option in his rookie contract officially exercised last week.
"I think [Carter's] a great player. We can use him in a lot of different ways," said Thibodeaux, who was honored on Tuesday night at the Gridiron Gala as a hometown hero by the United Way of New York City for the work he has done in the community with his JREAM Foundation. "I'm excited to see him come in and grind and [see] what we're going to get."
The Gridiron Gala is the United Way of New York City's top fundraising event each year. It raises millions of dollars.
