Malik Nabers Headshot

Nabers scored season-high 23.2 PPR points in his first WR1 finish pending Sunday- and Monday Night Football. He hauled in six of 7 targets for 112 yards and a TD in the Giants 36-24 win over the Cardinals. It marks his first 100-yard game since before he tore his ACL last season.

2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Big Plays Finally Landed

Nabers took full advantage of the Giants first game with 250 passing yards this season. He accumulated 3 catches of at least 25 yards including his TD in the second quarter.

With his latest 24.1% target share, he has now posted at least a 24% target share in three of his first four games back from ACL injury.

His productivity is still behind the pace he set as a rookie with his 1.86 yards per team pass attempt trailing the 2.31 mark he produced in 2024. But that is in large part due to playing on an offense that hadn’t produced a 250-yard passing game until this week, while also scoring a TD for the first time since Week 1.

Unfortunately for the Giants pass catchers, they won’t get the luxury of facing a Cardinals defense that was allowing the fourth-most points to QBs every week.
