STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Nabers expected to play week one; ACL recovery history for elite WRs is encouraging.

Expected to avoid the PUP list and could play in week one after tearing his ACL and meniscus; historical precedent for stud wide receivers recovering from ACL injuries is encouraging—Jordy Nelson was WR2 the next year, Keenan Allen was WR3, Chris Godwin was WR18 overall (WR17 per game) after tearing ACL and MCL, and Cooper Cup was WR4 the next year after tearing his ACL in week 10.
