Giants' Malik Nabers: Huge volume in Sunday's loss
Malik Nabers caught 10 of 18 targets for 127 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders.The rookie wideout was Daniel Jones' first read, and usually his only one, for most of the afternoon, as the rest of the New York Giants' pass catchers combined for only six catches on 10 targets for 51 yards. While a four-yard grab just before halftime gave Nabers his first career TD, it was one of the passes he couldn't haul in that will likely stick with him. On New York's final possession in the fourth quarter with the score tied 18-18, Nabers couldn't handle a sideline pass on fourth down that would have extended the team's drive. With his spot as the Giants' top downfield threat secure, Nabers will face a much tougher test in Week 3 against the Browns' stingy secondary.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Expected to play
Coach Brian Daboll said Friday morning that Malik Nabers (knee) is "good" and there's "no concern" about his status for Sunday's game at Washington, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.The New York Giants added Nabers to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant, following his 5-66-0 line on seven targets in a season-opening loss to the Vikings.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Tending to knee injury
Malik Nabers was a limited participant at Thursday's practice due to a knee injury, Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.With the addition of Nabers to the Giants' Week 2 injury report, two of the team's top three wide receivers now have a cloud hanging over their statuses ahead of Sunday's game at Washington. Fellow wideout Darius Slayton also was limited as he makes his way through the concussion protocol, leaving Wan'Dale Robinson and Jalin Hyatt as New York's healthiest options at the position. Friday's report may shed light on Nabers' potential to play going into the weekend.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Team's leading receiver in Week 1
Malik Nabers had five catches for 66 yards on seven targets in Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Vikings.After failing to catch his first two targets, Nabers made his first catch late in the first quarter, finding a hole in Minnesota's zone defense to pick up 25 yards on third down. He finished with a team-high 66 receiving yards, but Wan'Dale Robinson led the New York Giants in both targets (12) and catches (six) despite finishing with only 44 yards. Daniel Jones didn't look down the field much as the Giants failed to get into the end zone, so while Nabers clearly looks like the most talented member of New York's offense, he may be held back by the ineptitude around him. The Giants have routinely dominated the Commanders of late, which bodes well for Nabers' Week 2 outlook against a Washington secondary that allowed the most passing yards in the league last season.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Four grabs against Houston
Malik Nabers caught four of six targets for 54 yards and added one carry for five yards in Saturday's 28-10 preseason loss to the Texans.The rookie showed off his first-round talent on a spectacular 21-yard catch along the sideline during a two-minute drill at the end of the second quarter, as he pulled down a ball that was slightly overthrown with a leaping catch and got both feet down in bounds to help to set up a field goal. Nabers flashed some chemistry with Daniel Jones in their first game together, and the New York Giants are counting on the sixth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft to be the elite downfield threat the franchise has lacked since Odell Beckham was in his prime.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Resumes practicing in full
Coach Brian Daboll said Thursday that Malik Nabers (ankle) will be a full participant in practice, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.Daboll also said there's "definitely a chance" Nabers plays in Saturday's preseason game against the Texans, per Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record. The rookie first-round pick suffered an ankle injury at practice Sunday, and despite initial concerns, Nabers has managed to work his way back from the sprain in quick fashion. During last week's preseason opener against the Lions, Nabers went without a target while playing on the game's first three drives. Daboll has stated that Daniel Jones will play Saturday after sitting out last week, so if Nabers is given the go-ahead to face Detroit he'll have his first chance to demonstrate on-field chemistry with his No. 1 quarterback.

Giants' Malik Nabers: No concerns for Week 1
Malik Nabers (ankle), who is not practicing Tuesday, said he has "no doubt" he'll be able to play in Week 1 and that his injury is "nothing serious," Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.Coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Nabers is considered day-to-day after leaving Sunday's practice due to an ankle issue, and MRI and X-Ray tests revealed Tuesday that the rookie first-round pick has indeed avoided a serious issue. Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports that the issue is a sprain, which Nabers said won't need any support when he's ready to return to action. It's a relief that his availability for New York's regular-season opener against Minnesota on Sept. 8 isn't in jeopardy, but the injury will force him to miss some practice time in training camp and could impact his status for the Giants' final two preseason games, starting with Saturday's matchup against Houston.
