Star receiver could miss Rams game in Week 2
The New York Giants may be without star receiver Malik Nabers for their Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Rams due to ongoing knee issues. Nabers has undergone multiple procedures following an injury that initially occurred in the 2025 season. The Giants are considering placing him on injured reserve if he is not cleared in time, which would sideline him for at least the first four games of the season.
- ▪Malik Nabers injured his knee in Week 4 of the 2025 season against the Los Angeles Chargers.
- ▪He underwent a second procedure to remove scar tissue from the knee after experiencing stiffness during rehabilitation.
- ▪Giants head coach John Harbaugh stated that Nabers' recovery has been 'not simple' and there is no definitive timeline for his return.
