The Giants face their toughest test yet — the injury-riddled 49ers are coming to town, and everything is on the line for Big Blue.
Which storyline has you fired up most: Malik Nabers’ surgery, Dexter Lawrence firing back at Carl Banks, or Cam Skattebo’s road to recovery? Tell us below and don’t forget to hit Subscribe to join the Goofball Army!

Nabers finally underwent surgery a full month after his knee injury, calming fans worried about his long-term future. While the recovery timeline keeps him out until 2026 training camp, his surgery went smoothly — a key milestone for one of NY’s cornerstone stars.

Meanwhile, Dexter Lawrence lit up headlines after former Giants legend Carl Banks claimed opponents “don’t respect” him anymore. Lawrence fired back hard, pointing to being double-teamed on over 72% of snaps and his rising 13.5% pass-rush win rate. The tape agrees — he’s still drawing elite-level attention. The real issue may lie in scheme changes that moved him away from his most dominant spot at nose tackle.

Then there’s the brutal injury to Skattebo. Ian Rapoport reported that the rookie back suffered a dislocated ankle, fibula fracture, and ligament rupture, requiring immediate surgery. Doctors say recovery should take roughly six months, meaning Skattebo should return by OTAs. Despite the gruesome moment, the outlook remains encouraging.

We’ll also preview this week’s showdown with the 49ers — a team somehow sitting 5-3 despite 22 injuries across their roster. Saleh’s defense remains tough, CMC continues to carry the offense, and Brock Purdy’s status looms large. The Giants’ keys to victory are simple: contain CMC, finish in the red zone, create pressure, and stretch the field deep when protection allows.
