Malik Nabers avoiding the PUP list delivers a massive dose of optimism to the Giants before training camp. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as they explain why the decision strongly suggests Nabers will play September football, even if Week 1 remains uncertain. They debate how high the ceiling could be for Jaxson Dart once he finally gets an extended opportunity with his elite young receiver.
Evan and Shaun also rank the players the Giants and Jets simply cannot afford to lose. Geno Smith’s health becomes critical because of the Jets’ shaky backup quarterback situation, while David Bailey, Garrett Wilson, Minkah Fitzpatrick and Will McDonald carry major importance for the franchise’s future. Plus, the Yankees face complicated service-time, roster and potential lockout considerations surrounding a George Lombard Jr. call-up.
