The New York Giants are about to host the Washington Commanders, who’ve been one of many largest surprises within the NFL this season, and that may imply going up towards rookie sensation Jayden Daniels.
Daniels, the No. 2 general decide within the 2024 NFL Draft, is trying like one of the best quarterback, and presumably one of the best general participant, from this 12 months’s draft class, and he’s coming off an unbelievable Hail Mary landing cross in Week 8 that downed Caleb Williams, the No. 1 general decide, and the Chicago Bears.
Giants broad receiver Malik Nabers was taken No. 6 general in April, and he has been the one brilliant spot in what has in any other case been one other dismal season for the Giants.
Nabers, who performed with Daniels at Louisiana State College, praised his fellow rookie forward of their second NFL assembly.
“They bought my dawg at quarterback. I imply he’s an awesome quarterback,” Nabers mentioned, through Giants Movies. “… He’s been doing a very good job. … He’s a winner.”
“They bought my dawg at quarterback, he is an awesome quarterback.”

Final season with LSU, Nabers had 89 catches for 1,569 yards and 14 touchdowns with Daniels as his QB.
Up to now this season, he has 46 catches for 498 yards and three touchdowns in six video games, having missed two with a concussion.
Nabers has given the Giants the kind of pass-catching risk they haven’t had with Daniel Jones at quarterback.
Nonetheless, Jones, who’s in his sixth season within the NFL, hasn’t improved, and he has accomplished simply 62.6 p.c of his cross makes an attempt and thrown for six touchdowns and 5 interceptions this season.
If the Giants by some means discover a technique to land a reputable beginning QB, both within the draft, free company or through commerce, Nabers may make life simpler for him, each straight away and for years to return.
