RB Devin Singletary also out of practice
Wide receiver Malik Nabers, dealing with a concussion suffered last Thursday against the Dallas Cowboys, will not practice Wednesday for the New York Giants, per multiple reports from media in attendance at coach Brian Daboll’s Wednesday media session.
Nabers is said to still be in the “early stages” of the NFL’s concussion protocol.
Another injury that could be significant for the Giants belongs to running back Devin Singletary. He will not practice on Wednesday due to a groin injury.
Cornerbacks Dru Phillips and Adoree’ Jackson, who both missed last week’s game with calf injuries, will also not practice. They will, however, work on the side with the training staff.
Nabers, of course, has largely been the Giants’ offense through the first four games of the season. He leads the team (and the league) in targets with 52. He has a team-high 35 receptions and 386 yards.
Nabers is on pace for 149 receptions and 1,640 receiving yards. The Giants’ record for receptions in a season is 107, set by Steve Smith in 2009. Victor Cruz holds the record for receiving yards in a single season. He had 1,536 in 2011.
Nabers is averaging 95.5 receiving yards per game, and is second in the league in receiving yards.
