Summary
Malik Nabers is progressing faster than expected, but the Giants’ optimism comes with a serious warning. NFL reporter Connor Hughes explains why Nabers could contribute against the Cowboys in Week 1 barring a setback, while revealing that the rest of the wide receiver room has left plenty to be desired. Odell Beckham Jr. has endured a quiet start and is far from guaranteed a roster spot, while Abdul Carter is already wrecking practices. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they examine how John Harbaugh has immediately brought professionalism and raised the Giants’ floor. They also react to Tony Romo being placed on leave by CBS and debate whether Baker Mayfield could become the stabilizing quarterback the Jets desperately need.
