The decision on whether Nabers plays has been left to the player himself, and Schefter adds that Nabers hasn\u2019t given the Giants\u2019 clarity on whether or not he\u2019ll play.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Schefter reports that Nabers is \u201cleaving whether or not he [Nabers] plays to God. He wants God to guide him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Jay Glazer of Fox Sports <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/clt_ny\/status\/2099179376004743192?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">is reporting that<\/a> Nabers has been cleared to come back. Glazer says, \u201cThey\u2019re [the Giants] are going to bring him out about three hours before the game. It\u2019s his [Nabers\u2019] decision if he plays, how much he plays.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">He adds, \u201cFrom what I\u2019m gathering right now, the sentiment is that they think he\u2019s going to go. But they won\u2019t really know until three hours before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Three hours before kick-off will be roughly 5 p.m. eastern, and we\u2019ll update throughout the afternoon with more information on Nabers\u2019 status as we get it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">If Nabers can\u2019t pay, the Giants will likely be depending on TE Isaiah Likely and WR Darnell Mooney to fill the void, as well as Odell Beckham Jr. in his return to MetLife Stadium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We are, as of this writing, about six hours from kick-off in the New York Giants season opener&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":345754,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9,12183,8144,11,10],"class_list":["post-345753","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-giants-injuries","tag-new-york-giants-news","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345753","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=345753"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345753\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/345754"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=345753"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=345753"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=345753"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
