Wide receiver Malik Nabers is getting closer to returning to the Giants’ lineup.
Nabers has missed the last two games due to a concussion, but Giants head coach Brian Daboll mentioned in his Wednesday press conference, through several reporters, that the first-round pick is doing “much better” this week.
Daboll stated that Nabers is still in concussion protocol, but he has made enough progress to participate in practice on Wednesday.
He will be wearing a non-contact jersey during his first practice since his injury in Week Four.
If Nabers handles the increased activity well without any issues, he should be ready to play against the Eagles this week. This would be a positive update for an offense that only scored seven points against the Bengals in Week Six and will be without left tackle Andrew Thomas in Week Seven.
