We’re still a ways out from meaningful fantasy football action, but any injury to one of the most quickly-ascending rookies bears acknowledgment just weeks away from the regular season. Nabers is believed to have suffered a minor ankle sprain during practice after a teammate stepped on his foot, causing him to come up lame and appear on the injury report. Based on the current temperature of the Giants’ coverage of his injury, it doesn’t sound like it’s expected to have any kind of impact, short or long, on his regular season – but there’s certainly the possibility that the team shuts him down for the upcoming Week 2 preseason game, and potentially the rest of the way out of precaution. Nabers is expected to dominate the target share in New York from day one after showing out in training camp, especially given the lack of experienced competition around him. His ADP has ballooned all the way up to the WR17 on Underdog thanks to plenty of hype coming out of camp, but his rise may be tempered by reports of a potential ankle injury limiting his ability to build momentum heading into Week 1. Fantasy managers can continue to draft Nabers as usual unless more unexpected trouble arises.
