Malik Nabers Sheds Non-Contact Jersey, Remains on Track to Play in Week 1
New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) took another meaningful step Monday, shedding the red non-contact jersey and working into both 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 periods, according to Connor Hughes. Nabers wasn't a full participant and the Giants practiced without pads, but this was still his first contact-type work since tearing his ACL and meniscus last season. He also made a diving catch coming back to the ball on an intermediate route. Nabers had already returned to full-speed team periods last week while still wearing the red jersey, so Monday moves the recovery forward again. He caught 18 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns in four games before the injury ended his 2025 season. Week 1 has not been formally guaranteed by the team, but Hughes said the outlook continues to look good. With Nabers now taking live reps without the non-contact jersey, he's cleared another important hurdle before the opener.
