Giants’ Malik Nabers explains how he’ll make Daniel Jones’ life easier

New York Giants rookie WR Malik Nabers explains how he’ll make Daniel Jones’ life on the field much, much easier.

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers, who left Sunday’s practice after an injury scare, sat down with Kay Adams of Up & Adams after the session.

One of the topics discussed was his growing chemistry with quarterback Daniel Jones, which Nabers suggested is going to make DJ’s life much easier.

“I just put a lot of confidence in him,” Nabers said. “I told him, ‘Every ball (doesn’t) have to be a great ball, just put it around me.’ I’m good enough of a player to adjust my body or go get the ball. Wherever it’s at, just put the ball around me and I’m going to make this spectacular catch.”

Dating back to his time at Duke, Jones has never played with a true WR1 talent the likes of Nabers — a legitimate game-changing wide receiver who doesn’t require perfect accuracy.

All of the top quarterbacks have been blessed with a talent like Nabers, but this is new territory for Jones.

Over the first two weeks of training camp, it was evident that Jones was growing more confident in Nabers and his deep-ball passing. The two connect for at least one big play a day, which bodes well entering the regular season.

“He makes a lot of plays,” Jones told Adams. “He goes up and gets the ball, can get open, can run any route, fast, strong… Everything you want in a receiver.”

Jones is on track to play against the Houston Texans on Saturday and so long as Nabers is also on the field, DJ intends to get him his first NFL reception (and more).
