he won't commit to his status for week one...Malik Nabers is somebody since stepping on an NFL football field...he's left games now two or three times with injury...he's coming off an ACL tear. He could have a down year where a lot of times off of an ACL tear, you can see a downtick in your efficiency.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

ACL recovery uncertainty for week one; 17.4 PPG healthy average; WR5-7 tier.

Coming off ACL tear and as of September 1st was still not fully 100%, working with trainers to begin practice and not committing to week-one status. Post-ACL injuries often result in efficiency downticks, and there's risk he could get off to a slow start or not be the same player. Despite injury concerns, averages 17.4 PPG when healthy across NFL career—would rank WR5 if fully available, placing him in Lamb-Jefferson tier (WR5-7 range). From week seven onward, ranked as top-5 wide receiver in fantasy.
