Malik Nabers has ‘no doubt’ he’ll be ready for Week 1
Malik Nabers told reporters he has “no doubt” he’ll be ready for Week 1.
Fantasy Impact
Nabers suffered an ankle sprain over the weekend that was considered to be minor. His status will still be worth monitoring over the next couple of weeks, but it appears he was able to avoid anything too serious and should be fully healthy for the start of the season.

J.J. McCarthy torn meniscus, will undergo surgery
Minnesota Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy is expected to undergo knee surgery and will be sidelined indefinitely. He had been experiencing knee soreness over the weekend, and an MRI on Monday confirmed a torn meniscus in his right knee.
Fantasy Impact
The Vikings selected McCarthy out of Michigan with the 10th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Tough blow for the team and their presumptive future franchise quarterback, and it seems QB Sam Darnold may end up starting the entire 2024 season.
