Malik Nabers Busy In Preseason Debut

Malik Nabers Busy In Preseason Debut

3 months ago

Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers hauled in four receptions for 54 yards in New York's 28-10 defeat against the Houston Texans. He was targeted six times. Nabers participated the entire first half with the other New York starters and was used early and often in this one. The LSU product was targeted on the first play from scrimmage by Daniel Jones on a pass nearly intercepted by the Texans' D. He was targeted again two plays later on 3rd-and-6, but the two couldn't connect again on what would have been a big gain. Nabers showed off the electric athleticism Saturday that made him the Giants' sixth-overall pick in this April's draft, and his stock is rising heading into the regular season. It is evident that New York plans to use the highly-touted prospect often this season, and he will likely lead this team in targets come the season's end. Expect him to suit up for his last action of the preseason next Saturday when the Giants take on the New York Jets in their final game before the start of the regular season.
