Malik Nabers: Breaking News

Recovering from second procedure

Nabers had a procedure on his knee "multiple weeks ago" to remove scar tissue, but the Giants don't anticipate any change to the wideout's recovery timeline, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. Nabers initially had surgery Oct. 28 to address ACL and meniscus tears in his right knee. He then dealt with stiffness in the knee this spring and had the clean-up procedure at some point in April. The Giants reportedly still hope Nabers will be ready for Week 1, but it's not looking especially good for his full participation at the start of training camp. He'll likely remain limited to meetings and rehab work during the offseason program, ceding first-team WR reps to the likes of Darius Slayton, Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin and Malachi Fields.

Present for voluntary workouts

Nabers (knee) is present for the Giants' first day of voluntary workouts Tuesday. Nabers is progressing from ACL and meniscus tears that he suffered to his right knee in Week 4 of last season, and GM Joe Schoen said in late March that he's "hopeful" the star wide receiver will be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 campaign, per Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site. While it remains to be seen when Nabers will be ready to resume on-field drills, it's encouraging to see him in house and building familiarity with new head coach John Harbaugh's offense.

GM hopeful for Week 1 availability

Giants general manager Joe Schoen said Monday that he is "hopeful" Nabers (knee) will be ready to play by Week 1 of the upcoming campaign, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Nabers played in only four games last season, as he tore the ACL in his right knee Week 4 against the Chargers and ended the campaign on IR. Schoen said Monday that he is optimistic about the star wideout being ready to play from the get-go in the coming season, though the GM also expressed the need to be cautious. "Like I always say, we'll see," Schoen said. "As long as there's not a setback or whatever it may be, optimistic Week 1, he'll be ready. But again, you just never tell with these things and how they're going to react or if there's any setbacks. But he's in a good spot right now mentally and physically." Fantasy managers who have their sights set on Nabers will certainly look for further updates to emerge ahead of draft day.
