Giants WR Malik Nabers Reacts to Absurd Target Share With Simple Message
New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers reacted to his absurd target share in Sunday's tie against the Washington Commanders.
In a surprising twist, New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers found himself with an extraordinary 20 targets from quarterback Jameis Winston in the Giants' Week 5 tie with the Washington Commanders. Despite the game ending in a 27-27 draw, Nabers' impressive stats stood out - 11 catches for 121 yards and a touchdown. Nabers, who had previously called for more targets earlier in the week, was quizzed on his unusual target share after the game.
He admitted, "I'm surprised it was 20. [Actually] I can see how it was 20. A lot of go balls [against] cover zero, trying to get the ball out quick." Despite the absurd number of targets, Nabers simply said, "Hey, I'll take it." The Giants, now 3-1-1, look ahead to their Week 6 showdown against the New Orleans Saints.
