Multiple media outlets reported that the injury
is believed to be a mild ankle sprain for Nabers, the sixth
overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft out of LSU.
Per the New York Daily News, Nabers was "reaching down and
touching the top outside of his left foot" after competing in a
team drill. He limped to the sideline and removed his cleat
before being examined by trainers.
Nabers has been making his presence felt both with his play in
joint practices with Detroit last week as well as with an
altercation with Lions safety Kerby Joseph.
Nabers caught nearly everything in sight against the cornerbacks
and safeties Detroit put in front of him on the first two days
of practice, but he was ushered to the side by coach Brian
Daboll after the Tuesday fight.
Nabers had two touchdowns in team work and was the one player
neither defense could contain in both practices.
Nabers had 89 catches for 1,569 yards and 14 touchdowns in 13
games last season at LSU while playing with Heisman
Trophy-winning quarterback Jayden Daniels.
Nabers, 21, was a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award, which
honors the nation's best receiver. That award ultimately went to
Marvin Harrison Jr. of Ohio State.
