Overview
- Giants general manager Joe Schoen said this week he still expects Malik Nabers to be ready for the Sept. 13 season opener against the Cowboys and called his rehab "trending in the right direction."
- Head coach John Harbaugh described Nabers as "making really good progress," estimated he is roughly 70–80% through rehabilitation, and warned that returning from a knee injury is a slow, non‑linear process.
- Nabers missed the team's mandatory minicamp while continuing rehab after the initial ACL and meniscus surgery and a second offseason "cleanup" procedure to remove scar tissue.
- New York added multiple receivers in free agency and the draft — including Odell Beckham Jr., JuJu Smith‑Schuster, Braxton Berrios, Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III and rookie Malachi Fields — as roster insurance if Nabers is limited early.
- The Giants expect clarity at training camp in late July, when coaches will set Nabers' workload, roster status and any short‑term plans for his return, a decision that will affect the offense and Jaxson Dart's developing chemistry.
