Wide receiver Malik Nabers has not played in a game since suffering a season-ending knee injury on Sept. 28, 2025. He practiced fully all week and was listed as questionable heading into Sunday night. Nabers is active for Week 1.

Nabers, who broke the franchise's single-season reception record as a rookie, was the only Giants player with a game designation on the final injury report.

Defensive lineman Shelby Harris (Achilles), offensive lineman Bryan Hudson (knee), tight end Theo Johnson (shoulder) and left tackle Andrew Thomas (knee) were also full participants all week. Fullback Patrick Ricard, a six-time Pro Bowl selection, was added on Friday with a toe injury but was cleared to play.

On Saturday, the Giants signed wide receiver Dalen Cambre from the practice squad to the active roster. They also elevated recently-signed linebacker Malik Harrison and wide receiver Braxton Berrios, who is expected to be the Giants' punt returner.

"The plan with Berrios is treat him like he's playing on the 53," coach John Harbaugh said the day after they released the veteran when the initial 53-man roster was set. "We have an opportunity, the way that you can work the roster now, to do that. And that's the plan."

For the Cowboys, Malik Davis, who figured to be the No. 2 running back behind starter Javonte Williams, suffered a season-ending hip injury on Friday that will require surgery. They subsequently signed running back Israel Abanikanda to the active roster from their practice squad.
