In this episode of “2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates,” Drew and Rob dig into the latest updates and rumors surrounding the New York Giants. From injury concerns to trade speculation, this live episode covers everything fans need to know about their team right now.
The conversation starts with an in-depth look at rookie WR Malik Nabers, who remains in concussion protocol following last week’s game. Although Nabers hasn’t been officially cleared yet, the extra time from the Thursday night game seems to be working in his favor. Darius Slayton gave fans a positive update on Nabers, stating, “He’s in good spirits,” but also highlighted the unpredictable nature of concussions. Drew and Rob explore what this means for the Giants' upcoming game against the Seahawks and how crucial Nabers has been to the offense.
Malik Nabers has also been the subject of controversy off the field. After a couple of crucial drops in big moments this season, some have questioned his ability to come through in clutch situations. One post on X (formerly Twitter) claimed Nabers “lacks the clutch gene,” sparking heated responses from NFL players, including Giants tackle Jermaine Eluemunor, who called Nabers “already a Top 5 WR.” Jets WR Garrett Wilson also jumped to Nabers’ defense, telling critics to “shut up” and stop overanalyzing. Drew and Rob weigh in on how much these moments really impact a young player’s development and whether the criticism is fair or premature.
Beyond his performance on the field, Nabers was fined $28,128 by the NFL for a gun-like celebration after both of his touchdowns against the Browns in Week 3. This hefty fine raises some eyebrows, especially after Falcons WR Drake London received a much smaller fine for a similar celebration just a week earlier.
Trade rumors are swirling around the Giants’ wide receiver room, particularly with the Kansas City Chiefs in desperate need of help following injuries to Rashee Rice and Marquise Brown. Some insiders believe the Chiefs could target Darius Slayton, who is in the final year of his contract. There’s also speculation that the Giants could move on from Jalin Hyatt, who has seen limited playing time this season. What could these potential moves mean for the Giants' offensive strategy and their chances to secure a top quarterback in the upcoming draft?
Speaking of quarterbacks, the Giants recently worked out veteran QB C.J. Beathard, raising eyebrows across the fanbase. With the team struggling and Jones' future in doubt, could we see the Giants turn to Drew Lock or Tommy DeVito? The possibility of Jones being shut down for the season is looming larger as the losses continue to pile up.
In a nod to Giants history, the episode also touches on the Hall of Fame candidacy of Ottis Anderson. Recently named one of 167 senior nominees for the 2025 Hall of Fame class, Anderson is getting support from former teammates Harry Carson and Lawrence Taylor. Both legends have publicly stated their belief that Anderson deserves a spot in Canton.
The episode wraps up with a recap of Week 4 around the NFL. Tune in as Drew and Rob offer all the latest news, rumors, and updates surroundi
