In his first piece of primetime action, NY Giants wideout Malik Nabers isn't wasting any time in showing the rest of the planet what he's made of. Nabers has been sensational over the past two games, making Washington and Cleveland defensive backs look silly.
Now, he's doing more of the same, this time against the Dallas Cowboys. On Big Blue's opening drive of Week 4, which ended with a 52-yard field goal from Greg Joseph, Nabers put a Dallas cornerback on the floor with a sweet move. Seriously, Andrew Booth didn't have a chance after Nabers did this:

NY Giants WR Malik Nabers took Dallas CB Andrew Booth to school with a sweet move
The play is going viral already and for good reason. It's tough to imagine what life was like for the Giants before Nabers was taken with the No. 6 overall pick. He's the exact kind of playmaker this offense has been needing for years.
Putting Booth in a spin cycle was only a small taste of what he's been able to get done this year. Against Washington, he had a touchdown and 127 yards. Then vs. the Browns, he had eight catches for 78 yards and two touchdowns. He played a huge role in NY posting their first win of the season.
He's now focused on making life difficult for the Dallas secondary, which he's surely doing. Whenever Nabers is on the field, he's got the potential to post a big-time play. Booth is getting ripped by Dallas fans for his brutal play, but on the other side of things, NY supporters are smiling from ear to ear knowing Nabers is looking electric against an NFC East rival like this.
The more we see of Nabers, the more excitement there is about his future in the league. Joe Schoen has received a lot of heat for some of his NFL Draft misses, but things could not be going much better for his 2024 first-rounder.
