New York Giants top pick Kayvon Thibodeaux left Sunday night’s preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a knee injury and will not return.<\/p>\n
Thibodeaux went down after getting cut-blocked by Bengals tight end Thaddeus Moss in the second quarter. He immediately grabbed at his right knee.<\/p>\n
