New York Giants superstar Malik Nabers is carted off in agony after suffering worrying knee injury

Giants star Malik Nabers was left in agony on Sunday as he exited the game with a hugely worrying injury.

Nabers jumped up to catch a pass along the sideline when he appeared to suffer a non-contact knee injury as he planted his foot on the turf.

The wide receiver immediately held his knee after falling back down to the ground, and writhed in pain as cameras focused on him during the gruesome moment.

Nabers didn't play another snap for the Giants and was seen being carted off the field shortly after.

While the severity of Nabers' injury is currently unclear, the MetLife Stadium turf has been host to a raft of non-contact injuries over the years.

Jets receiver Garrett Wilson, who also calls MetLife home, branded the playing surface 'garbage' in 2023, while his now-ex teammate Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles on his first series of that season. 

'You can just tell the difference like if you was to get on that turf and (then) go on a different turf,' Mekhi Becton told CBS Sports last year.

'You can tell. It's a night and day difference in turf. It just feels lifted. There's a lot of things that doesn't feel right about that turf.'

The likes of Nick Bosa, Jabrill Pepers and current Giants receiver Wan'Dale Robinson have all suffered non-contact injuries on the MetLife turf. 

Nabers is considered the Giants' top offensive player after a stellar rookie season in which he earned Pro Bowl honors.

And he showed that immense talent in Week 2 when he racked up 167 yards and two touchdowns in a loss against the Cowboys. 

The ijury dampened the mood after a tremendous start for Jaxson Dart, who led an 89-yard touchdown drive to begin his first regular season start. 

However, Dart later appeared to be struggling with a hamstring injury himself, while Chargers offensive lineman Joe Alt was also carted off earlier in the game.
