New York Giants' Malik Nabers makes debut on NFL Top 100 Players of 2025 list
Enter second-year wide receiver Malik Nabers, who set an NFL record for receptions by a rookie wideout last season.
Nabers is one of the league's biggest rising stars and was recently named to NFL Network's Top 100 Players of 2025 list.
No. 67 - Malik Nabers, WR, New York Giants
15 games | 109 rec | 1,204 rec yds | 11.0 ypr | 7 rec TDs | 2 rush yds | 1 rush TD
An emerging star in New York, Nabers was a highlight reel every week for the Giants. Regardless of who was under center for the Giants, the No. 6 overall pick in the 2024 draft filled the stat sheet. Nabers was a bright spot in New York's underwhelming season with his receptions tally briefly holding the rookie record, and finishes his debut campaign with a Top 100 accolade to his résumé.
NFL Pro Insight for : Malik Nabers was targeted on 36.5% of his routes run when facing single-high safety coverage last season, second-highest in the NFL among wide receivers with at least 150 such routes run. Nabers earned 103 targets against single-high coverages last season, nine more than any other receiver. However, he gained just 649 yards on those targets, ranking 13th overall.
The Giants feel they have several other possible rising stars, such as safety Tyler Nubin, tight end Theo Johnson, running back Tyrone Tracy Jr., and linebacker Abdul Carter.

Gleyber Torres and Eugenio Suarez Agree, The Tigers Need to Acquire the Slugger
Gleyber Torres and Eugenio Suarez Agree, The Tigers Need to Acquire the Slugger originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Detroit Tigers raced out to a huge lead in the AL Central in the first half of the season. Since the All-Star break, though, they have been one of the worst teams in the league. If they listened to one of their All Stars, the front office would make the biggest trade of deadline season and get Eugenio Suárez out of Arizona. Gleyber Torres said Tuesday that, 'It's going to be awesome,' if the team is able to make the deal come to fruition. '"He treats people the right way. He's easy to talk to. He always wants to help the players. It would be a really, really good addition for us." Torres and Suárez were teammates on Team Venezuela during the World Baseball Classic. The time together made a big impact on Torres; he speaks glowingly of his former and possibly-future teammate. "I think he's a better person than player…He is a humble guy, an awesome person. I've known him for many years. Our relationship is really good.' Torres is not the only one who wants the Diamondback third baseman in a Tigers uniform. Even Suárez has come out and said he wants to come back to Detroit, the team he began his career with. "To finish where everything started, it would be cool," Suárez said a day before playing in the 2025 MLB All-Star Game. "It would mean a lot to me." He made his debut with the team in 2014 and played 85 games before being traded the following offseason. Suárez understands how much has changed if he were to come back. "Since I was there, it's been a lot different. It's a new team with a lot of young guys and a lot of talent. I think they have a really good chance to make it more than the playoffs this year." They do have a great shot at a deep playoff run, but they are not playing like it right now. After multiple trades for pitchers, it feels like a reunion might be destined to happen. And their second baseman would be thrilled. Join the conversation with us on Facebook and X. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 30, 2025, where it first appeared.

Mariners president Jerry Dipoto hopes his aggressive deadline moves lead to a World Series run
SEATTLE (AP) — New Seattle Mariners third baseman Eugenio Suárez made a point of interrupting president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto's post-trade deadline news conference. Dipoto, who reacquired the slugging third baseman from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday in exchange for a trio of minor leaguers, was praising Suárez from the Mariners' dugout when the 34-year-old best known for his home runs and good vibes butted in. 'Stop it!' Suárez said, more than loud enough for all to hear. Suárez, Dipoto and the rest of the franchise had plenty to be pleased about after the trade deadline. The Mariners, who entered Thursday night's game against the Texas Rangers in playoff position, bolstered their lineup by adding more than just Suárez, who has 36 homers this season and is tied with Seattle's Cal Raleigh for the major league lead with 87 RBIs. A week ago, the Mariners made another deal with the D-backs for slugging first baseman Josh Naylor. Dipoto believes Seattle acquired the 'best bats' available, adding power to a lineup that already ranks fifth in the majors in home runs. 'This is the best lineup we've had since I've been here,' Dipoto said. 'Without question.' Dipoto, who was hired as the Mariners' general manager in 2015 and promoted to president of baseball operations in 2021, has overseen a number of competitive clubs in the Emerald City. While Seattle has qualified for the playoffs only once under Dipoto, it has had a winning record in six of the last nine seasons. Dipoto's teams have often been in the playoff race ahead of the deadline, but Seattle's moves haven't been as aggressive as this year's additions of Suárez, Naylor and veteran left-handed reliever Caleb Ferguson. Dipoto said his mindset wasn't that different from previous seasons, but he said he was more willing to acquire players who will be free agents at the end of the year. 'We feel like this team deserved it, the opportunity to just go out and see if we can win the World Series,' Dipoto said. 'We feel like we have as good a lineup as there is in our league. Our rotation, if our guys do the things that they do, has proven that they can be as good as anybody in this league.' This team is in many ways deeper than previous squads, too. Raleigh is in the midst of what Dipoto called an 'MVP-type' season, and the Mariners had four other All-Stars. Starting pitchers George Kirby and Logan Gilbert, both of whom missed significant time earlier in the season with injuries, are healthy again, adding to a rotation that's been buoyed by Bryan Woo and Luis Castillo. 'I think if you talk to other clubs in the league,' Dipoto said, 'they're pretty bullish on what we're capable of when we're hitting on all cylinders. And while we had a hot streak early in the season, we haven't hit our next hot streak, and it's coming.' To Dipoto's point, the Mariners' longest win streak of the season was six games and it came at the end of April and early May. The additions of Suárez, Naylor and Ferguson could push Seattle from being a fringe postseason contender to a legitimate threat to win the AL West, in which they entered Thursday trailing the Houston Astros by five games. Manager Dan Wilson was confident that he had a good team even if the Mariners hadn't added talent at the deadline. Unlike previous seasons, though, Dipoto felt compelled to supplement the roster in a meaningful way. 'I believe that adding to this team, adding some energy to the room and just showing the guys that we believe in what we're doing was important,' Dipoto said. 'And I think the response has been great.' ___ AP MLB:
