New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers is currently recovering from a toe injury that affected his performance during the previous season. According to reports from Moneyline's Jordan Raanan, Giants head coach Brian Daboll indicated that Nabers would have limited participation in organized team activities (OTAs) as he continues his rehabilitation process. The franchise aims to ensure that Nabers receives adequate rest to be fully prepared for the upcoming training camp.

Nabers, who enjoyed a successful collegiate career at LSU, was selected sixth overall by the Giants in the 2024 NFL Draft. His inaugural season in the NFL was impressive, as he started 13 of the 15 games in which he participated, compiling 109 receptions for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns. His performance earned him a fifth-place finish in the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year voting and a selection to the Pro Bowl. However, Nabers faced challenges during his sophomore campaign, missing two games due to a concussion and battling various injuries, which limited his practice participation.

Despite these setbacks, Nabers delivered noteworthy statistics amidst a struggling quarterback situation. Daniel Jones played the first ten games before being benched and subsequently released, leading to Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito starting in his absence. Collectively, the Giants' quarterback production was among the lowest in the league, with the team accounting for just 3,228 passing yards, 15 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions. Notably, Nabers contributed significantly to the team's total offense, amassing nearly half of the Giants' receiving yardage and touchdowns. Following a complete overhaul of their quarterback roster, including the acquisitions of Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in free agency and the selection of Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, expectations are that the Giants' passing game will see improvements with more consistent quarterback play. Given the New York Giants' turbulent seasons following their unexpected playoff appearance in 2022, the franchise faces an uphill battle in the 2025 campaign, yet Nabers stands out as a legitimate superstar wide receiver, pivotal for the team's offensive success if he remains healthy.
