Malik Nabers #1 of the New York Giants reacts on the cart after being injured against the Los Angeles Chargers during the second quarter in the game at MetLife Stadium on September 28, 2025 in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Overview

  • The injury came on a deep attempt during a free play after Chargers linebacker Troy Dye jumped offside, with Nabers’ right leg appearing to buckle as he leaped.
  • The Giants ruled Nabers out for the remainder of the game, and head coach Brian Daboll said he had no immediate update postgame.
  • NFL Network reporters Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero said Nabers is believed to have torn his ACL, a setback that would likely sideline him long term if confirmed.
  • New York beat Los Angeles 21-18 in Jaxson Dart’s first NFL start, as the rookie quarterback ran for a touchdown and threw another in the team’s first win of the season.
  • The non-contact injury renewed criticism of MetLife Stadium’s synthetic turf, with former Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. publicly calling for the NFL to move away from artificial surfaces.
