An MRI on Monday confirmed that New York Giants standout wide receiver Malik Nabers has suffered a season-ending torn ACL, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Nabers suffered the injury while trying to catch a deep ball down the right sideline in the first half of Sunday’s 21-18 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Nabers immediately reached for his right leg as he went to the ground. Several Giants teammates came onto the field to check on Nabers, who was in intense pain. Several players reacted as if they knew it was a serious injury.
The Pro Bowl receiver appeared demoralized as he left the field. He eventually waved to the fans as he was taken off the field on a cart.
