Nubin (back) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Nubin logged a week of limited practice sessions due to a back injury following the Giants' Week 11 bye, but it now appears he'll play through the issue Sunday. The rookie from Minnesota has impressed through 10 games this season, recording 69 total tackles and one forced fumble. He's expected to line up alongside Jason Pinnock as part of the Giants' top safety duo in Week 12.

Nubin tallied nine tackles (five solo), including one for loss, in Sunday's Week 6 defeat against the Bengals. Nubin has been racking up tackles of late -- he's led New York in stops three straight weeks and has 26 combined tackles during that span. That puts the rookie firmly on the IDP radar, though he doesn't have any interceptions or sacks so far. Nubin has a stranglehold on the starting role at strong safety for the Giants, having played all of the team's defensive snaps in five out of six games this year.

Nubin has led the Giants' defense in total tackles in back-to-back weeks, bringing his season total up to 30. Expect the Minnesota product to continue improving and making plays as the Giants host the Bengals in Week 6.

Nubin tallied seven tackles (five solo) in Sunday's loss to Minnesota. Nubin got the start at strong safety for New York and played all 55 of the team's defensive snaps. Meanwhile, Dane Belton -- who had at one point appeared to have won the starting role at the position -- played just nine defensive snaps, though it's not clear if the back injury that bothered him throughout the practice week contributed to his limited usage. Regardless, Nubin performed well in his first NFL game and appears set to be a key part of the team's defensive backfield moving forward.
