GiantsMalik Nabers Undergoes ACL Surgery After Month of Pre‑Hab

The team says he starts rehab Wednesday after a successful procedure that begins a 9–12 month recovery.

Overview

  • New York announced the star receiver is out for the rest of the 2025 season following Tuesday’s operation on his right knee.
  • The procedure was described as successful, included a meniscus repair per reporting, and was performed by Dr. Daniel E. Cooper, according to ESPN.
  • The operation came roughly one month after the injury to allow swelling to subside, a pre‑hab approach specialists say can reduce post‑operative stiffness.
  • Medical estimates place return‑to‑play at about 9–12 months, leaving his 2026 training‑camp availability uncertain even as some reports project readiness by the season’s start.
  • Rookie RB Cam Skattebo had emergency surgery for an open ankle dislocation and was placed on IR, with additional fractures and ligament damage reported and an estimated 4–6 month recovery.
