In an environment marked by tension, New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers and coach Brian Daboll had a heated exchange during the game against the Washington Commanders, a match that ended with a 21-6 defeat.Both Nabers and Daboll attributed the situation to the inherent intensity of the competition, although Nabers admitted that he felt the team’s energy was not adequate.This incident, captured by the cameras, led to a conversation between the player and the coach. Nabers, aware of the media attention it generates, acknowledged the need to be more cautious in his behavior.The team’s performance on the field, with only 231 total yards and no touchdowns, reflected the offensive difficulties that had already been seen last season.
Despite receiving 12 passes, of which he only completed five for 71 yards, Nabers clarified that his frustration was not due to the lack of balls, but to his overall performance and his attempt to motivate the team.
The game analysis was not pleasant for Nabers, who was disappointed when reviewing the game tape.Regarding his health, Nabers participated in a limited capacity in Wednesday’s practice due to a back injury, although both he and Daboll believe he will be available for the next game against the Dallas Cowboys.The challenge for the Giants will not only be to beat the Cowboys, but also to break the losing streak they have against them, including the two from last season.Nabers, when questioned about the frustration this situation generates, chose to end the press conference.I have a natural “b—-” face. It is simply what it is. That’s my face. I don’t know. When you all talk to me, I look the same all the time. It’s how I am. I guess I have to smile more.
Malik Nabers
