Malik Nabers says body language claims are ‘just a lie’

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers has dismissed comments made by Fox commentators Joe Davis and Greg Olsen, who claimed that Nabers' body language was "terrible" during a game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The comments, which have since gained significant attention, were made following the Giants' first win in Philadelphia since 2013.

Upon returning to the team, Nabers expressed his frustration, stating that the comments were a "lie" and an attack on his character as a football player and teammate. He emphasized that his body language remains consistent, regardless of the game's outcome, and that he puts a lot of effort into every play. Nabers also addressed his perceived passion for the game, explaining that his energetic post-game demeanor was a reflection of his competitive nature and dedication to the sport.

He assured reporters that his body language was not a sign of frustration or lack of care for the team, but rather a byproduct of his intense passion for football. As the Giants prepare for their upcoming game against the Washington Commanders on Thursday Night Football, Nabers remains focused on the upcoming match, while leaving the resolution of the body language controversy to be addressed by Olsen if he chooses to reach out.
