With less than two weeks before the season opener, Nabers says he will be good to go when it matters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel good,&#8221; Nabers told reporters this week, per a Giants transcript. &#8220;It&#8217;s been a little ride, but right now I feel great.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nabers has dealt with a nagging toe injury for most of the offseason, and he&#8217;s battled <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/news\/malik-nabers-injury-update-giants-star-wr-returns-to-practice-after-two-week-absence\/\" target=\"_blank\">what he described as a &#8220;minor&#8221; back injury<\/a><\/span>.

As a rookie last season, Nabers reeled in 109 receptions for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns. Given the fact that the Giants should have vastly improved quarterback play this season, the sky is the limit for Nabers &#8212; provided he can stay healthy.<\/p>\n<p>Left tackle <a
