Malik Nabers was confident he would boost the Giants’ offense when he returned to the field Sunday against the Eagles after missing two games.
He was wrong.
The Giants mustered just 119 total yards of offense Sunday, and even the return of Nabers couldn’t boost those numbers in a 28-3 home loss to the Eagles.
The Giants’ first-round pick had four receptions for 41 yards in his first appearance since he suffered a concussion on September 26th in a game against the Dallas Cowboys.
After the game, he seemed to take a major shot at the play of quarterback Daniel Jones.
“I mean, I was open,” Malik Nabers said flatly after the game when asked what changed in the final two quarters.

Daniel Jones was on the run throughout the game behind an offensive line that could not protect him. There was simply no time for him to do anything.
Jones and backup Drew Lock ended up being sacked a combined eight times in the game.
The loss dropped the New York Giants to 2-5 and kept them in the basement of the NFC East.

When New York Giants star wide receiver Malik Nabers went down against the Dallas Cowboys, no one knew he would be seen for his next game until the next month.
“It was scary when I couldn’t remember what happened or couldn’t remember the last play I was in,” Nabers admitted just days before he made his return to the field.
Nabers told reporters he was not planning to wear a guardian cap on his helmet.
