If anyone knows about a brutal injury at MetLife Stadium, it's former NY Giants superstar and fan favorite Odell Beckham Jr. He suffered a fractured ankle with the G-Men back in 2017 in East Rutherford, also against the Chargers.
Kayvon Thibodeaux was everyone finding out Malik Nabers likely tore his ACL
On Sunday, Malik Nabers, also a former LSU standout, went down with a knee injury against LAC and the belief is that the speedster has suffered a torn ACL. Since then, Nabers is getting showered with love from fans and teammates. You can add Beckham to the list, who is clearly bummed out for the youngster:
My heart hurts for ya 1!!!!

Odell Beckham Jr. had the same reaction as Giants fans after Malik Nabers went down
You're not the only one who feels pretty terrible for Nabers, Odell. It's just a rough situation overall for the former No. 6 overall pick. It's super unlucky too. In the first half on Sunday, the Giants had a free play, so Jaxson Dart decided to take a shot downfield.
He let the ball rip and put it in a spot where Nabers could go up in the air and potentially come down with it. However, as soon as he made the jump, things went south. Nabers planted his foot awkwardly and then he reached for his right knee before he even hit the turf.
You could see him screaming in pain and the cart was brought out immediately after the play went down. Nabers looked dejected as he was being carted off the field and it didn't take long for Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero to drop the breaking news that he likely tore his ACL.
Once that update is confirmed by the team, Nabers will officially be out for the rest of the 2025 season. Beckham knows how devastating that kind of an injury can be for a young wideout, especially one who's looking to make a name for himself in the league.
Nabers has been a joy to watch since last season and the expectation was that No. 1 and Dart would give the Giants faithful plenty of reasons to be excited about the future while grinding together this campaign. That's not going to be the case, but Brian Daboll, Joe Schoen and Co. know that Nabers is a competitor and he'll attack his rehab head on. OBJ will be in his corner through it all too.
