Giants Malik Nabers couldnt remember what happened after scary concussion

The toughest part was watching. The helpless feeling of not being able to help out his teammates.Knowing he could have made a difference. That should change on Sunday when Malik Nabers returns after missing the last two games with a concussion.

The Giants are expected to have their dynamic wide receiver back. “Just to get that player back out there.I’m a focal point when I’m out there,” Nabers said on Friday.

“The defense makes different calls when I’m out there.So, not having me, it made it a little bit harder for those guys.

So, just having me out there, just the presence that I’m out there, knowing the defense knows I can make plays, it helps other guys make plays also.” Nabers suffered a concussion late in a Sept.26 loss to the Cowboys.

It was the first head injury of his career.He suffered from headaches and throbbing in his head.

He still doesn’t remember the play.Just Daniel Jones throwing him the ball. “I mean it was scary when I couldn’t remember what happened or couldn’t remember like the last play I was in,” he said. He’s hoping to put the ordeal behind him.

Nabers was limited in practice on Friday due to a tight groin, but it is something he has dealt with for quite some time, and doesn’t expect it to limit him on Sunday.He plans to go full throttle. “I’m ready to go,” he said. Most importantly to him, Nabers wants to help the Giants after having to watch the last two weeks.

They went 1-1 without him, beating the Seahawks and losing to the Bengals.The offense struggled in the loss, managing just seven points.

Obviously, Nabers presents a different dimension.He leads all Giants receivers with 386 yards and three touchdowns.

He’s second, behind Wan’Dale Robinson (37), with 35 receptions.  Sign up for Inside the Giants by Paul Schwartz, a weekly Sports+ exclusive.Please provide a valid email address.
