Nabers is focused on scoring touchdowns and doing his part over the final seven weeks of the season.
Malik Nabers was next on the list of current New York Giants to discuss the team’s quarterback change, as everyone wants to know what the team’s star wide receiver and first-round pick had to say about the decision.
For the first time since the announcement, Nabers voiced his thoughts while speaking to the media. However, even though a new quarterback will be under center, Nabers seems focused on scoring touchdowns and helping his team succeed over the final seven weeks of the regular season.
