New York Giants star rookie wideout Malik Nabers (toe) missed practice Thursday and termed himself a game-day decision.
He also is unsure if he will be able to participate on Friday. The Giants host the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
“I’m hoping so, it all depends on how it feels tomorrow, that’s really it,” Nabers said Thursday.
Nabers, 21, has been one of the few bright spots for the Giants and leads the team with 97 receptions for 969 yards and four touchdown catches in 13 games (12 starts).
Selected sixth overall out of LSU, Nabers has caught 10 or more passes on three occasions but has just one touchdown catch over the past 10 games.
Though the Giants (2-13) are mired in a franchise-worst 10-game losing streak, Nabers isn’t down about the situation.
“We’re happy where we’re at,” Nabers said. “Continue to grow every day. A lot of things to fix, a lot of things we can look back on in our rookie year and continue to try to get better for next year.”
In addition to Nabers, running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle), center John Michael Schmitz (ankle), linebacker Micah McFadden (neck), cornerbacks Greg Stroman (shoulder/shin) and Dee Williams (toe) and safety Raheem Layne (knee) sat out practice Thursday. Quarterback Drew Lock (right shoulder) was a limited participant.
