Giants QB Jaxson Dart is expected to undergo knee surgery and miss the entire 2026 season. He solicited multiple opinions and surgery should allow his MCL and meniscus to make a full recovery. It was noted that Dart’s ACL was intact and not injured. QB Jameis Winston will start for the Giants for the foreseeable future.

Giants QB Jaxson Dart's knee injury is worse than initially thought, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "He’s out an extended period of time, possibly the season," Rapoport adds.

Giants WR Malik Nabers returned to Monday night's game vs. the Rams after injuring his right shoulder at the end of the first quarter. But he went catchless on 2 targets the rest of the way and said afterward that his shoulder popped out and back in, per The Athletic's Dan Duggan. Nabers is scheduled for additional testing on the shoulder. This is notably the same shoulder that Nabers injured at LSU in 2023. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that it was a partially torn labrum that he elected to let heal with rest, rather than surgery. We'll keep you updated on Nabers' status for Week 3 and beyond.

In a Monday Night Football matchup filled with injuries and offensive inefficiency for the Giants, Malik Nabers walks away with the lowest scoring output of his career. The third-year WR produced only 1 reception on four targets for just one yard, leading to 1.1 PPR and a WR116 finish to Week 2.

Giants WR Malik Nabers suffered an apparent right shoulder injury at the end of the first quarter of Monday night's game vs. the Rams. It looked like an innocent contested-catch opportunity for Nabers, but he immediately grabbed at the shoulder before collapsing on the sidelines. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: Nabers returned for the Giants' next possession after getting some work on that shoulder on the sidelines.

Malik Nabers was a game-time decision for the season opener, but ultimately ended up playing in what marked his first game back since tearing his ACL in Week 4 of last season. Nabers finished Sunday Night Football against the Cowboys catching six of his team-high 9 targets for 69 yards en route to 12.9 PPR points.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Cowboys. He was a full participant in practice all week but sounded unsure about his readiness for this one. It’s still unclear how much Nabers will play in his first action since his knee injury, but he’s available to use in fantasy lineups if you were waiting on him.

Giants WR Malik Nabers' status for tonight's game vs. the Cowboys remains "murky at best," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Giants "have not gotten clarity from Nabers," who will ultimately decide whether he plays in this one. New York notably elevated WRs Braxton Berrios and Dalen Cambre from the practice squad as insurance. The late kickoff leaves fantasy owners in a tough spot here. If you're hoping to start Nabers, you need to have a backup option from this game or Monday night's Broncos-Chiefs game on your roster

Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Cowboys. He was a full participant in practice all week, but Nabers said Thursday that the decision on whether he plays in the opener ultimately rests with him. The late kickoff could leave fantasy managers hoping to start Nabers in a tough spot, although we expect to get more updates on his status between now and the 1 pm ET games on Sunday. Stay tuned.

Giants WR Malik Nabers said Thursday that whether he plays vs. the Cowboys on Sunday night is ultimately up to him. He said he feels confident overall but wants to make sure he's not rushing, per The Athletic's Dan Duggan.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He's clearly set to play vs. the Cowboys on Sunday night. We'll see exactly how much he plays in his first action since last September's ACL tear, but this full practice bodes well. Nabers isn't the must-start that he typically is, but he's climbing our Week 1 WR rankings.

Giants WR Malik Nabers sounded uncertain about his Week 1 availability when he spoke Monday. He said his surgically repaired knee feels "real good," but he still has hurdles to clear before he's ready for game action.

Malik Nabers keeps progressing, and the odds of a Week 1 return keep rising. Connor Hughes of SportsNet New York reports that “He shed the red jersey and took part in 7-on-7 & 11-on-11.” While the Giants were without pads, meaning it wasn’t a full-contact practice, it was still a step in the right direction for Nabers. Hughes even reports that “He made a nice grab diving back for the ball on an intermediate route/curl.”

Less than a week following a practice where Malik Nabers left with a doctor just an hour into it, we’re getting reports that Nabers is back to taking positive strides in his rehab process. Art Stapleton of USA Today reported that “Malik Nabers took another significant step forward with live reps in 7-on-7, catching three passes from Jaxson Dart, including one on which he went up and spun in the air in traffic for about a 20-yard gain.”

After a positive start to training camp since tearing his ACL, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports, “Malik Nabers did less today than he had been.” He also added, “He worked on the side for a bit, then walked inside with a doctor an hour into practice.”

ESPN's Jordan Raanan believes WR Malik Nabers is "trending towards being ready Week 1 for the Dallas Cowboys." Nabers has participated in 9 of 10 training camp practices so far, per Raanan, and "looked better as the summer progressed." Nabers is expected to join 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 work within the next couple of weeks.

Giants WR Malik Nabers opened training camp in individual drills, and ESPN's Jordan Raanan said he “looked good” in videos of him running. Nabers tore multiple ligaments in his knee in the second quarter of the Week 4 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Earlier this year, he underwent a scar-tissue cleanup procedure on the knee, but with him back on the field this early, Week 1 looks like a strong possibility.

The Giants are not placing WR Malik Nabers on the physically unable to perform list at the start of training camp, according to multiple reports.

Training camp should give us a clearer read on Giants WR Malik Nabers’ return to action. But there’s reason to question his readiness, especially with the team offering few useful details. Nabers tore the ACL and meniscus in his right knee last September. Earlier this year, he underwent a scar-tissue cleanup procedure that might have been more significant than the label suggests.

The Giants are signing WR Odell Beckham Jr., according to multiple reports. Beckham started his pro career in New York, where he averaged 1,374 yards and 11.7 TDs over his first three seasons. Injuries have been a problem since, most notably a fractured ankle in 2017 and a torn ACL in 2020. Beckham was traded to Cleveland in between those two injuries in 2019. He also bounced to the Rams, Ravens, and Dolphins over the past few seasons. Beckham now re-joins the Giants, who have a rehabbing Malik Nabers and very little else at WR.
