Malik Nabers opened up about the severity of his head injury

Malik Nabers, the wide receiver for the New York Giants, was expected to be the main player for the team’s first four games. However, a concussion caused him to miss the first four games and is only now returning to play. Nabers has expressed his concerns about the severity of his injury. “It was scary when I couldn’t remember what happened,” Nabers said via Jordan Raanan of ESPN. “I can’t remember the last play I was in, so yeah, it was kind of scary. Last thing I remember was [Jones] throwing me the ball. That was it.”

Nabers said that he experienced headaches and throbbing after his first known concussion. He was cleared from the concussion protocol two weeks after the injury. He was limited in practice due to a groin problem he claims dates back to college. The Giants don’t believe it will be a problem. Nabers returned after two weeks of strict monitoring, including social media criticism for attending a Travis Scott concert with teammate Isaiah Simmons while still in protocol. He informed the Giants before the concert and declined to discuss the team’s reaction.
“Yeah, I’m going to always be myself,” he said. “I mean, that’s the life that I chose to live. It’s what comes with the job. But at the end of the day, I still got my own life. I still got my own personal life, so I’m going to continue to have my own personal life. I’m going to still continue to watch my back and I’m going to still continue to have my personal life.”
Nabers is quickly adjusting to the public’s opinions about his concert, mentioning Twitter and acknowledging that he cannot fully avoid the outside commentary, which some of it gets sent to his phone by friends and family.
