After missing the past two weeks, the Giants’ rookie WR will return against the Eagles in Week 7.
The Eagles have a short road trip this week to take on the Giants, and learned on Friday that Giants’ rookie WR Malik Nabers was medically cleared and off the injury report heading into the weekend. Nabers suffered a concussion in Week 4 against the Cowboys, and missed the past two weeks as a result.
Giants WR Malik Nabers — who had missed the last two weeks due to a confusion and also was listed this week with a groin injury — officially is off the injury, report and good to go Sunday against the Eagles.

Nabers has been one of few bright spots for the Giants through four games, recording 35 catches for 386 yards and three touchdowns — his stat-line should be higher having been targeted a team-high 52 times, but his QB is Daniel Jones after all.
In addition to the concussion, it seems that Nabers was also dealing with a groin injury leading up to the Eagles game, but it won’t keep him out.
This should be an exciting matchup for the Eagles, with rookie CB Quinyon Mitchell doing a great job even against some of the leagues most respected receivers. Mitchell has been this close to nabbing his first career interception, and a deep ball intended for Nabers seems like a great way to get it.
