Malik Nabers’ 2025 Knee Injury and the NFL’s Active 100-Catch Players
Nabers returns to form
Malik Nabers lost most of his 2025 season to a major knee injury. Early in the 2026 campaign, he appeared to be finding his rhythm again. From Week 4 through Week 9, Nabers posted four consecutive games with at least 100 receiving yards. He caught one of his two touchdowns in the Week 5 tie against Washington, with Jameis Winston and J.J. McCarthy throwing to him.
Teammates defend his demeanor
Nabers gained 43 yards in the Giants’ 19-11 win over Philadelphia last week. Announcer Greg Olsen criticized his body language during the game. ESPN reported that several teammates considered him a good teammate, while also describing him as emotional and competitive.
