The New York Giants will have a representative in the Pro Bowl as receiver Malik Nabers will replace Detroit Lions star Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Nabers was riveting in 2024. The LSU product set the Giants’ rookie receptions record with 109, amassed 1,000 receiving yards in his first season with 1,204 REC yards, and caught seven receiving touchdowns. He ranked No. 3 among all NFC pass-catchers in receptions and No. 4 in yards.
New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers has been named to the 2025 Pro Bowl Games roster. Nabers will serve as a replacement for the Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, who backed out of the event due to injury.
The Giants didn't have much to smile about on Sunday while watching Saquon Barkley and the Eagles advance to the Super Bowl, but there was some good news about a current member of the team on Monday.
Nabers is the franchise's first receiver to attain Pro Bowl honors since fellow Tigers talent Odell Beckham Jr. did so for a third time in 2016. Although similar issues plagued the Giants in 2024-25, the hope is that Nabers' arrival marks an eventual turnaround in the Meadowlands.
New York Giants nose tackle Dexter Lawrence has been named to the 2024 PFWA All-NFC Team for the third consecutive season.
Malik Nabers added one more notch to his stellar Giants rookie season by being named to the Pro Bowl on Monday, replacing Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Nabers caught 109 passes for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns. The 109 receptions are both a Giants single-season franchise record and the most by an NFL rookie wide receiver. His 170 pass targets were second only to Cincinnati Bengals All-Pro wideout Ja’Marr Chase.
Whether the Giants at No. 3 go quarterback, with Shedeur Sanders or Cam Ward — if either is available — or bolster their defense with edge rusher Abdul Carter or cornerback Will Johnson, or strengthen both sides of the ball with dynamic cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter, is worth investigating at another time.
Malik Nabers will indeed play in the Pro Bowl in place of Amon-Ra St. Brown, earning a spot after a fantastic rookie season.
