Injury Report (at kickoff)

MIN

✅ Justin Jefferson (WR) — active — Hamstring strain (recovered)

Returned to practice July 29 after a mild hamstring strain; fully participated with no limitations in Sunday's (Aug. 9) public training camp practice. On track for Week 1 vs. Chicago.

NYG

⚠️ Malik Nabers (WR) — questionable — ACL + meniscus recovery (right knee)

Recovering from a torn ACL/meniscus suffered in Week 4 last season vs. the Chargers, plus a follow-up spring surgery to clear scar tissue. Took a real step forward Thursday, Aug. 13, participating in team drills (non-contact jersey) for the first time, catching passes in a walkthrough period, per SNY's Connor Hughes, who said 'everything points towards him being back for the start of the season.' GM Joe Schoen has still declined to set a firm target return date, but Nabers is considered to have a real chance to be active for the Sept. 13 opener vs. Dallas.
