Duke Thibodeaux will miss the rest of the season with a meniscus. That is his season.
Across nine seasons: 5,320 yards from scrimmage, twenty-five touchdowns, 123 games. He got to 1,127 once. Not this time.
He is thirty-three, out of Bitter Lake, Idaho. Ask anybody: he is the one the young players actually ask. The route here: found at a regional combine by a scout whose flight had been cancelled.
The Porterhouse, 7-4, and twelve weeks gone. Cormac Bombardo is in year forty-five of it. He is out of contract after this.
Thibodeaux learned to cook properly during a rehab year and now does it for the offensive line.
