Pressure isn’t anything new for Malik Nabers — even wearing unretired No. 1
NY Post
The path to No. 1, Malik Nabers says, was strewn with pressure.
So whatever was added onto the pile by getting the Giants to bring Ray Flaherty’s number out of retirement — with Nabers being the first to wear it since 1947 — that’s more than welcome.
“I had pressure my whole life,” Nabers said following Thursday’s practice. “Made it outta a lot of situations with pressure. I feel like I like pressure. I’m happy that it’s on me. I guess if everybody puts pressure on me, then it’s good.”
Nabers will make his NFL debut a week from Sunday against the Vikings, but the hype around the LSU product already feels a little like another first-round receiver from the same school a decade ago.
It took five weeks into that season for Odell Beckham Jr. to burst onto the scene after an injury kept him out for the first month.
It took seven weeks for him to etch himself into the NFL’s forever highlight reel with an astonishing end-zone catch on a Sunday night against the Cowboys.
