EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Kayvon Thibodeaux is always thinking big, and sometimes that requires thinking small.
On Wednesday, the New York Giants’ second-year pass rusher proclaimed his intentions to be a general manager in the NFL after his playing days are over, before pulling back from the world he dreams of and the world he operates in right now.
Pass rushing is one of the few instances in football where the movement and styles of play can resemble a dance more than the gladiator spectacle that the rest of the game is. It requires timing, coordination, flexibility and an array of maneuvers to master. There are plenty of guys in the NFL who can jump a snap or get a step on an offensive tackle, but the great pass rushers are the guys who can actually finish a move and get a quarterback to the ground.
“The first game, I think we played Washington, it was a second-guess, kind of a step that threw me off even though I was unblocked,” Thibodeaux explained. “There were a couple of snaps in the first Eagles game we played where I could have had an impact at the top of my rush. I know there was even one in the Texans [game] going against Laremy Tunsil.”
