Malik Nabers’s current injury designation is shown in the live status box above, which updates automatically from the official NFL injury report. He has played through a dislocated shoulder and a prior torn ACL without missing extended additional time this season.
He dislocated his shoulder earlier this season before returning the same game, and he tore his ACL last season, missing the back half of the year before returning for this one.
Fantasy Action: Treat Nabers as a confident WR1 start whenever he is listed without a designation, given his target volume with Jameis Winston at quarterback.
