New York Giants WR Malik Nabers Has New Injury; Listed as Questionable for Sunday

The Giants also added cornerback Cor'Dale Flott to the injury report as questionable.

New York Giants receiver Malik Nabers is dealing with a hip flexor injury he suffered during Thursday’s team practice, head coach Brian Daboll confirmed.

Nabers, who has been on the injury report before with a groin issue, didn’t practice on Friday, raising concern about his availability for Sunday’s home game against the New Orleans Saints. Daboll said that Nabers, who had an MRI done, wasn’t ruled out before the practice, but his status is certainly worth keeping an eye on.

Other Giants who didn’t practice on Friday include linebacker Bobby Okereke (back), defensive tackle Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck), and cornerback Deonte Banks (rib). Those three players have been unable to practice all week, and although they have not received an injury status as of before the team’s Friday practice, they are not trending in the right direction.

In somewhat positive news, both starting offensive tackles, Jermaine Eluemunor (quad) and Evan Neal (hip) were projected to be limited during Friday’s practice. Both appear to be heading in the right direction, but again, Daboll did not offer a final status on either player before the team’s Friday practice.  

Daboll also said that safeties Tyler Nubin (knee) and Dane Belton (hip), both of whom popped up on the injury report on Thursday "will be okay" for Sunday's game.
