Malik Nabers caught 7-of-11 targets for 111 yards in New York’s Week 7 win over the Texans. 2026-10-25 17:00:03 He toasted Derek Stingley Jr. a few times and found a 42-yarder early on in the proceedings. Nabers didn’t come close to scoring, but that was mostly a result of Houston’s bad run defense being an easy mark. He’ll retain WR1 status once he’s back from New York’s Week 8 bye. |

Malik Nabers caught 11-of-20 targets for 121 yards and one touchdown in the Giants’ Week 5 tie with the Commanders. 2026-10-11 18:00:03 Nabers saw 15 of his targets come in the second half after the Giants opted to abandon a mostly useless ground game in a game they trailed for most of the afternoon. Nabers came up with multiple big plays as the Giants mounted their comeback attempt, with his biggest coming on a leaping 17-yard touchdown in the end zone to tie the game at 27-27 with under two minutes to go in the game. Nabers had a key drop on a screen pass in overtime that had a chance to set up a big gain, but he made up for it later in the game with a 28-yard gain as the Giants were trying to position themselves for a potential game-winning field goal attempt. Nabers has now gone for 100-plus yards in back-to-back weeks and has found the end zone in both of those games. He seems to finally be hitting his stride after a slow start to the season, and will profile as a high-end WR2 in next week’s game against the Saints. |

Giants coach John Harbaugh said Malik Nabers (knee) will be “ready to play” on Sunday. 2026-10-09 14:00:01 It was presumed that Nabers would play after sitting out Wednesday with soreness in his surgically repaired knee. Though this is just our speculation, the Giants may take it easier on their star receiver this week after he hauled in 6/112/1 against the Cardinals in Week 4. He remains on the WR2 line in what has been (when not facing the Cardinals) a rough offense with Jameis Winston under center. |

Malik Nabers (knee) resumed practicing on Thursday. 2026-10-08 14:00:02 Nabers is currently going through route running drills with his position group, putting him on track to play in Week 5 against the Commanders. Nabers sat out yesterday, citing extra soreness in his surgically repaired knee, but told ESPN’s Jordan Raanan that he usually feels better as the week progresses. A WR1 finish is in play this week, assuming he is active. |

Malik Nabers (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. 2026-10-07 17:00:03 Earlier today, The Athletic’s Dan Duggan reported that Nabers sat in the rehab section, speaking with the team’s head trainer during individual drills before seemingly going through some sort of rehab routine. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan then reported that Nabers said he was feeling “more sore than usual,” and “did as much as he could at practice.” When asked whether this could affect his ability to play in Week 5 against the Commanders, Nabers said, “we’ll see,” adding that it usually gets better as the week progresses. We tentatively expect Nabers to play, though this is worth monitoring closely. |
