"2024 Pro Bowl selection Nabers went to ground clutching his right leg during the first half of his side's 21-18 win at the MetLife Stadium, with ESPN saying an MRI has shown a serious knee injury. "My heart goes out to that kid," Giants linebacker Brian Burns said in his post-match remarks. "I didn't think it was going to be that serious. "I've seen the hard work he's put in. He was banking on his goals for this season. He could be back and better than ever. I believe in him, but it's tough.""
"Speaking shortly after the game, Giants coach Brian Daboll said he was "certainly not happy" to potentially lose Nabers, adding that he felt "terrible" for the 22-year-old. "I don't think we know exactly what happened," said rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart. "He's going to be one of my first phone calls to check on him." "I just told him I was praying for him," Slayton said of Nabers. "We got his back.""
