New York Giants WR Malik Nabers shows progress at training camp

Malik Nabers New York Giants training camp knee injury John Harbaugh

Wide receiver Malik Nabers participated in the New York Giants' first day of training camp, marking his first on‑field activity since undergoing surgery for a torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee nine months ago. Coach John Harbaugh described the workout as encouraging, noting that the team will monitor how Nabers' knee responds and will take a gradual approach.

The Giants opted not to place Nabers on the Physically Unable to Perform list, allowing him to take part in individual drills and limited route work. While his workload will remain modest, his presence is seen as a key factor for the team's offensive prospects, especially given quarterback Jaxson Dart's early sharpness during practice. General manager Joe Schoen and the coaching staff emphasized caution, avoiding a fixed timeline for a full return.

Overall, the camp proceeded without other injuries, with tight end Thomas Fidone and defensive tackle Sam Roberts activated from the PUP list. The Giants aim to have Nabers fully ready for the season opener, but his exact availability remains uncertain.
