Overview

  • Nabers was hurt during the Giants’ Week 4 win over the Chargers at MetLife Stadium and will miss the remainder of the 2025 season.
  • The Athletic’s Dan Duggan reported a partial meniscus tear in the right knee in addition to the torn ACL, with no other knee damage identified.
  • Surgery is anticipated within the next week or two, and the timeline for his return is projected to remain unchanged after the procedure.
  • Before the injury, Nabers had 18 receptions for 271 yards and two touchdowns and led New York in targets, receiving yards and yards per catch through four games.
  • Wan’Dale Robinson is expected to become the top target with Darius Slayton’s role expanding, while teammates including Russell Wilson publicly voiced support as Nabers posted “I’m sorry” and was later seen on crutches at a YoungBoy concert.
