Giants’ Nabers out vs. Seahawks due to concussion

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers won’t play in the team’s Week 5 contest against the Seattle Seahawks because of the concussion he sustained last week, head coach Brian Daboll said Friday, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News.

Nabers exited late in the team’s Week 4 loss to the Dallas Cowboys after failing to haul in a fourth-down pass attempt and landing hard on the ground.

The sixth overall selection in April’s draft leads the NFL with 35 catches through four contests. He’s turned those receptions into 386 yards and three touchdowns.

Wan’Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, and Jalin Hyatt are expected to operate as the team’s top receivers with Nabers unable to suit up. Robinson has been limited in this week’s practices due to a heel injury, though.

New York’s passing offense ranks 16th in the league with 211.5 yards per contest. The Seahawks have had one of the stingiest secondaries to start the year, allowing the seventh-fewest passing yards per game (167.5).
