The Giants' electric rookie wideout will have a lot of eyes on him this season.
Malik Nabers, the electric wide receiver selected with the No.6 overall pick in April, has had every camera possible pointed in his direction since he strapped on his shiny blue helmet. As such, he was named to"The 6-foot, 200-pounder flashed in the preseason and seems capable of fulfilling the Giants’ long-standing need for an elite playmaker,” wrote list creator Mike Jones.
“Two years ago, the acquisition of Tyreek Hill helped Tua Tagovailoa settle in and begin ascending as a passer. Could Nabers’ presence have a similar impact on Jones, who lost one security blanket in Saquon Barkley and now enters a make-or-break season?" Nonetheless, Nabers is on the path to creating his own legacy. He's had a good start this summer in training camp, making acrobatic catches almost every practice and making defenders look silly. He flashed in the team's preseason loss to the Texans, hauling in four catches for 54 yards. Two of those catches were true eye-openers and had social media buzzing.Nabers received the rare honor of being granted a jersey number that was previously retired by the club.
