Tyler Nubin: Everything you need to know

Nubin (neck) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Nubin finished the 2025 season on injured reserve due to a neck injury. The 2024 second-round pick impressed through his first two seasons, recording 176 tackles (106 solo) and three pass breakups through 26 games. He'll likely start at strong safety once again in 2026, although the addition of Jason Pinnock -- a starter for the Giants in 2023 and 2024 -- represents some level of competition.

The Giants moved Nubin (neck) to injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Nubin has not been able to practice since sustaining a neck injury after the Giants' loss to the Vikings in Week 16. The safety's move to IR will end his season since the Giants have been eliminated from playoff contention. Nubin finishes the season with 78 tackles (49 solo) and two passes defensed through 13 games.

Nubin (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's battle against the Raiders. Nubin had a big game this past Sunday against Minnesota, as he scored his first career touchdown on a fumble recovery. However, he's dealt with a neck injury this week and hasn't been able to practice in any capacity. With Nubin out Sunday, Dane Belton and Jevon Holland should be the Giants' starting safeties.
