Malik Nabers Dealing With Minor Ankle Sprain
3 months ago

New York Giants rookie first-round wide receiver Malik Nabers (ankle) limped off the practice field at training camp early on Sunday, but the belief is that it's just a minor left-ankle sprain. It appeared that Nabers was stepped on near the end of team drills in practice. It's something to watch for the 21-year-old, but it shouldn't keep him out of action at camp for too long, if at all entering next week. He played just 12 offensive snaps in the team's preseason opener on Thursday night against the Detroit Lions and wasn't targeted at all by quarterback Drew Lock. The sixth overall pick in this year's NFL draft may very well lead the G-Men in targets in his first year in the NFL, which will make him a WR2/3 target for fantasy managers in upcoming drafts. Any missed time by Nabers in camp will open up more opportunities for receivers Jalin Hyatt, Wan'Dale Robinson, Isaiah Hodgins, Darius Slayton and Isaiah McKenzie.
