Malik Nabers not caving to tanking away his first Giants season is telling

On a day when it felt like the world turned upside down, Malik Nabers and the New York Football Giants players did not care about the first-overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, did not care about much of their fan base salivating over the prospect of Shedeur Sanders or Cam Ward quarterbacking the 2025 team, and issued this statement:

NO TANKS.

At the end of one of the worst seasons in their 100-year history, Brian Daboll, a 45-33 winner, could exhale and John Mara could walk briskly with no comment but no grimace for the first time since Oct. 6, and the first time in the bowels of MetLife Stadium.

And as much as Nabers would love to be catching passes from Sanders, or from Ward, it was more important to him to impose his will on the day and remember what it feels like to celebrate with his new professional brothers.
