Giants move on from Malik Nabers injury scare: ‘No concern’
NY Post
The Giants’ Malik Nabers injury scare appears to be just that — and nothing worse.
Brian Daboll said the rookie wideout, added to the injury report Thursday after experiencing knee soreness, will practice Friday and is expected to be available for Sunday’s game against the Commanders.
Nabers, the No. 6 overall pick in April, caught five passes for 66 yards during the Giants’ season-opening loss and has quickly emerged as Daniel Jones’ top target.
“No concern,” Daboll said. “He’ll be ready to play.”
Daboll also said wideout Darius Slayton (concussion) was cleared to practice with contact Friday and is “trending in the right direction,” but he still has one more stage of the protocol to clear.
The more significant variable, though, revolved around Nabers.

The Mets took their time, too. Buck Showalter was fired on Oct. 1, 2023. It was believed they had one solid target in mind as his replacement in Brewers manager Craig Counsell, but Counsell wouldn’t be available for exactly another month. The wait seemed like only a wink-wink formality. He and David Stearns had worked together for years in Milwaukee.
