New York Giants receiver Malik Nabers is dealing with a hip flexor injury he suffered during the team’s practice on Thursday, head coach Brian Daboll confirmed.

Nabers, who has previously been on the injury report because of groin problems, did not practice Friday, raising concerns about his availability for Sunday’s home game against the New Orleans Saints. Daboll said Nabers, who had an MRI, was not ruled out before practice, but his status is worth keeping an eye on.

Other Giants who did not practice Friday include linebacker Bobby Okereke (back), defensive tackle Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck) and cornerback Deonte Banks (rib). These three players were unable to practice all week, and although they had no injury status prior to the team’s Friday practice, the trend is not going in the right direction.

Some positive news is that starting offensive tackles Jermaine Eluemunor (quad) and Evan Neal (hip) are expected to see limited action during Friday’s practice. Both appear to be headed in the right direction, but again, Daboll did not announce a final status on either player before the team’s Friday practice.

Daboll also said that safeties Tyler Nubin (knee) and Dane Belton (hip), both of whom appeared on the injury report on Thursday, “will be OK” for Sunday’s game.

Clearly means a change in status/new addition to the report from the date of first issue.
