Giants' Malik Nabers: Surgery completed
Malik Nabers underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair a torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, Dan Salomone of the New York Giants' official site reports.The star wideout sustained the knee injury in a Sept. 28 win over the Chargers, but he had been completing a "prehab" program over the past month before finally going under the knife Tuesday. He's scheduled to be discharged from the hospital Wednesday and will be able to immediately begin what's expected to be an extensive rehab process.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Surgery set for upcoming week
Malik Nabers is scheduled to undergo surgery later this upcoming week to repair the torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Though Nabers sustained the non-contact injury during a Sept. 28 win over the Chargers in Week 4, he needed one month to let the swelling in his knee subside and complete a rehab program before heading in for surgery. Assuming Nabers' upcoming procedure goes as planned, he's expected to be back to full strength for the start of the 2026 season. Before suffering the knee injury, the 22-year-old wideout played only a handful of snaps with rookie first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart, who made his first NFL start Week 4 in place of the struggling Russell Wilson after the latter directed the offense for the first three games of the season.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Needs surgery for ACL, meniscus
Malik Nabers will undergo surgery next week to repair a torn ACL and torn meniscus in his right knee, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Nabers tore both his ACL and meniscus during the second quarter of the New York Giants' Week 4 win over the Chargers. Schefter adds that the time off will allow Nabers to also recover from a partially torn labrum in his shoulder as well as a bout with turf toe, and the 2024 first-round pick is expected to return for the start of training camp in July. Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt and tight end Theo Johnson are expected to serve as the primary targets for rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart in Nabers' absence.

Giants' Malik Nabers: Lands on IR
Malik Nabers (knee) has been placed on IR by the New York Giants, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.Salomone also relayed earlier Monday that coach Brian Daboll confirmed Nabers will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL. With Nabers officially on IR, Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and Jalin Hyatt are poised to lead the teams' WR corps going forward, with Beaux Collins and Gunner Olszewski also available to mix in. In any case, losing the talented 2024 first-rounder for the rest of the campaign is a huge loss for a New York offense now helmed by rookie QB Jaxson Dart. Given the timing of his injury, Nabers -- who is expected to undergo surgery in the coming weeks, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com -- has a chance to be ready for the start of the 2026 regular season, though the Giants have yet to outline a estimated timetable for his recovery.

Nabers is expected to land on IR in short order.
