Malik Nabers named NFC Offensive Player of the Month

Malik Nabers’ October production earned him the NFL’s NFC Offensive Player of the Month award. The New York Giants celebrated the recognition with several posts on social media.

The third-year receiver rebounded from a quiet opening stretch, when he recorded no more than 70 receiving yards in any of his first three games. Across his final four October appearances, he made at least six catches and gained 110 or more yards in every game. His season totals stand at 48 receptions, 605 yards and two touchdowns.

Nabers tore an ACL in Week 4 of the 2025 season, an injury that may have played a part in his slower start this year. His recent performances indicate he has returned to a prominent role in the Giants’ passing game.

New York begins Week 9 at 4-2-1, atop the NFC East. After a Week 8 bye, the Giants are set to meet division rival Philadelphia on Sunday.
