Pre-Season Outlook
Nabers is one of the better WR prospects of the past decade but had to settle for second billing in his draft class and a selection at sixth overall. Nabers has one of the cleaner prospect profiles you'll ever see, having produced 417 receiving yards as an 18-year-old true freshman, 1,017 yards as a sophomore and 1,569 yards last season (while playing in the SEC). He skipped workouts at the 2024 Combine but then emphatically shut down any lingering doubts at LSU's Pro Day, where he turned in a 4.35 40 and 42-inch vertical at 6-0, 200. Nabers is one of the younger players in his draft class, turning 21 this summer, and yet he already has a lot of experience playing both the slot and perimeter. His big plays in college were a mix of deep balls and YAC-driven shorter passes, with Nabers looking something like a faster, shorter CeeDee Lamb. The rookie will need to fine-tune his route running, among other things, to reach Lamb's level, but those are the kind of career outcomes that are in play. In terms of Year 1 production, expectations should be much lower, partly because Nabers is so young and even more so because the Giants have a shaky QB situation.

Four grabs against Houston
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.
Analysis: 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 Giants are counting on the sixth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft to be the elite downfield threat the franchise has…read more

Expected to play
Nabers (ankle) is in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against Houston, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Nabers suffered an ankle injury six days prior in the Giants' first practice after their preseason-opening win over the Lions. Nabers finished that game without a target despite playing three drives, and he's now on track for another preseason appearance after a quick recovery from the ankle injury.

Resumes practicing in full
Coach Brian Daboll said Thursday that Nabers (ankle) will be a full participant in practice, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: 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…read more

No concerns for Week 1
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 Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: 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…read more

Tests reveal nothing major
Tests on Nabers' ankle didn't reveal a serious injury, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: The Giants apparently got favorable results from an MRI and X-Ray, with coach Brian Daboll suggesting Tuesday that Nabers will miss some practice time but isn't expected to be out for too long. Daboll declined to provide a diagnosis or a firmer timeline for his return, merely confirming that the tests didn't reveal anything worrisome.

Considered day-to-day
Coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Nabers (ankle) is "sore" and considered day-to-day, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Nabers reportedly sprained his ankle during Sunday's practice, and while he won't participate Monday, it sounds like the Giants aren't at all concerned about a lengthy absence. He played three drives in Thursday's preseason opener against the Lions, finishing without a target on 12 snaps.

Injury appears to be minor
The Giants believe Nabers, who exited practice early Sunday, is dealing with a minor ankle sprain, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Nabers took off his left shoe and limped to the sideline late in Sunday's practice, but Ranaan reports that the Giants don't seem too concerned about the issue at this point. If the initial belief that the rookie wideout is suffering from a minor sprain proves to be true, he could be held out for Saturday's preseason matchup at Houston, but the injury probably won't prevent Nabers from suiting up for Week 1 of the regular season. Of course, the organization isn't likely to take any chances with…read more

Limps off field during practice
Nabers exited Sunday's practice early and was seen limping at the end of the the Giants' team drills, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It's not yet clear what caused the issue, but Nabers took off his left shoe and limped off the field before practice had ended, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. Duggan notes that the rookie wideout didn't go to the locker room but was using a band to stretch his left ankle/foot while sitting on the sideline, and he was limping at the end of the session. Nabers is primed to be an integral part of New York's offense after the team drafted him sixth overall in the 2024 Draft, so it's…read more

No targets in preseason debut
Nabers wasn't targeted in Thursday's 14-3 preseason win over the Lions.
Analysis: Nabers played the first three drives of the Giants' preseason opener but didn't get any attention from Drew Lock, and the quarterback subsequently exited the game due to a hip injury. Per Jordan Raanan of ESPN, Nabers ran eight routes on his 12 snaps. The sixth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft may ramp up his participation in the next preseason game against the Texans, but it will be hard to evaluate Nabers until he shares the field with starting quarterback Daniel Jones, who may not play in…read more

Slated to play Thursday
Nabers is in line to play in Thursday's preseason game against the Lions, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: ESPN reported early Thursday that Nabers would be among a number of Giants starters to not suit up for the team's exhibition opener, but the rookie first-round pick indeed will be available for up to the entire first quarter. Nabers has been ripping it up since arriving in New York as the sixth overall pick back in April, and Thursday will mark his first game action in the NFL.

Not scheduled to play Thursday
Nabers and other starters aren't expected to play in Thursday's preseason game against the Lions, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Raanan suggests the starters could play the following Saturday against Houston, although there's been nothing from the team to confirm that so far. Nabers has drawn rave reviews throughout training camp, apparently looking the part of a sixth overall pick (and then some).

Turning heads in training camp
Nabers has impressed during training camp thus far, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Nabers immediately moved into the No. 1 receiver role when the Giants drafted him sixth overall in April, and he's so far done nothing to make anyone in the organization question his ability to handle that responsibility. Carroll notes that the 21-year-old has "shown off with highlight reel catches" "in nearly every practice," and offensive coordinator/assistant head coach Mike Kafka stated that the rookie has been "getting better and more comfortable" every day. Most recently, Nabers showed…read more
