When the New York Giants selected Kayvon Thibodeaux and Evan Neal in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft, they did so with the hope that both would become game-changing players in the immediate and long-term.
The Thibodeaux pick was a fan favorite at No. 5 overall because he is both marketable and one of the more exciting first round picks across the league. He’s also an early favorite to win rookie of the year. What wasn’t known was the impact Thibodeaux would have in the overseas market.
Turns out that also ended up as a checkmark for the Giants. Thibodeaux’s No. 5 has landed on the list of top-10 jersey sales in the UK.
