Germany will welcome the NFL this weekend as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Giants</a> and Carolina Panthers head to Europe for their Week 10 game. However, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/daniel-jones" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Daniel Jones</a> and company may have to do it without a key player.



The Giants were chosen for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> International Series this year, set to face the Panthers in Germany. While the matchup may not have massive fan appeal, both teams are in dire need of a win this week.



Daniel Jones recently signed a lucrative contract extension but has struggled to prove he’s worth it. A victory against Carolina could help him silence critics and show he can be the franchise QB the Giants need.



<h2>Daniel Jones and the Giants may travel to Germany without a key player</h2>



Few teams are as desperate for a win in Week 10 as the Giants and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carolina Panthers</a>. Both clubs are 2-7, sitting at the bottom of their divisions, making this showdown especially compelling.

German fans will enjoy an NFL game at Allianz Arena. While it may not feature elite teams, the excitement of live professional football adds a unique thrill.



Oddsmakers favor the Giants to win. Despite New York’s struggles, Carolina’s major rebuilding phase gives the Giants a slight edge on paper for this matchup.



Unfortunately, New York’s chances took a hit recently. Head coach Brian Daboll confirmed that key wide receiver Darius Slayton might not make the trip to Germany, as he’s still in concussion protocol.

Slayton’s status remains in question. The team hoped he could travel if cleared, but it seems likely he won’t be ready in time for the game.



<h2>Are the Giants already eliminated?</h2>



Surprisingly, they’re not. Despite their 2-7 record and last-place standing in the NFC East, the Giants still have slim playoff hopes through the Wild Card.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/new-york-sports-ny-liberty-win-wnba-title-leaving-only-one-ny-sports-team-without-titles"></div>


To qualify, the Giants would need a flawless second half of the season. The question remains: can Daniel Jones lead a winning streak strong enough to take New York to the playoffs?

The New York Giants will look to win their second straight game when they take on the Cincinnati Bengals on primetime Sunday Night Football of the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season. Despite the objective, head coach Brian Daboll shared some bad news regarding the injury status of wide receiver <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/malik-nabers">Malik Nabers</a>.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brian-daboll">Daboll</a> was cautious throughout the week of preparation leading up to the weekend when he claimed that Nabers was making great strides and that his status was day-to-day in terms of recovering from the concussion he suffered in the Week 4 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.



Nabers was in protocol and unable to play in Week 5, when the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants">Giants</a> defeated the Seattle Seahawks 29-20. At the time, his absence made a lot of sense because of the proximity in time to when he suffered the injury, but there were expectations that the rookie would be able to play against the Bengals.



<h2>Bad news from Daboll about Nabers’ injury</h2>



The bad news delivered by Giants head coach Brian Daboll is that Malik Nabers will be out of Sunday’s game against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cincinnati-bengals">Cincinnati Bengals</a>. The wide receiver, who will miss his second straight game, will continue to recover from his serious injury and is not expected to return until the Week 7 divisional meeting against the Philadelphia Eagles.

<h2>Malik Nabers’ performance in the 2024 NFL season</h2>



Wide receiver Nabers has 35 receptions for 386 yards and three touchdowns on the season. Not a bad start for a rookie selected with the 6th overall pick in the NFL Draft. Meanwhile, the Giants are 2-3 and in fourth place in the NFC East, making this a key day for their season expectations.

<h2>Daboll awaits recovery of another key player</h2>



The Giants head coach is waiting for running back Devin Singletary to recover from a groin injury. His status will be finalized late Friday, although there is speculation that he will be listed as questionable at the last minute. At the same time, linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux suffered a fractured scaphoid bone in his wrist and underwent surgery to repair it, so his status will be week-to-week.

Giants HC Brian Daboll shares bad news on Malik Nabers injury before NFL game vs Bengals - Bolavip US

Head coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brian-daboll">Brian Daboll</a> gave a press conference update on the injury status of star rookie Malik Nabers, who continues to recover from a concussion suffered in the New York Giants‘ Week 4 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in the 2024 NFL season.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/malik-nabers">Nabers</a> went into concussion protocol and was unable to play in Week 5, when the Giants defeated the Seattle Seahawks 29-20. The 21-year-old wide receiver had been injured when he fell and hit his head on the ground with his facemask in front of him.



“Malik (Nabers) is getting better. His recovery is day-to-day,” Daboll cleared about Nabers’ injury. There are doubts about the rookie’s chances of playing against the Cincinnati Bengals next week. In this context, the former Louisiana State University is working with the training staff this week and increasing his physical activity.

<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Brian Daboll says Malik Nabers is doing "better" He is still in concussion protocol and is day-to-day <a href="https://t.co/R09xSfGqZN">pic.twitter.com/R09xSfGqZN</a>— Giants Videos (@SNYGiants) <a href="https://twitter.com/SNYGiants/status/1844054901204148475?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 9, 2024</a></blockquote></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



Daboll also said the next step is for Nabers to participate in non-contact drills, depending on how he feels the next day. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants">Giants</a> are in no hurry to get the 21-year-old wide receiver back after struggling without him in their last game. Receiver Darius Slayton had 8 receptions for 122 yards and a touchdown against the Seahawks.



<h2>Giants lose another key player</h2>



Giants defensive standout Kayvon Thibodeaux suffered a fractured scaphoid bone in his wrist and underwent surgery today to repair it, a source said. Head coach Brian Daboll described it as “week-to-week”, assuming that the 23-year-old player will not be available for a certain period of time.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/former-super-bowl-champion-with-the-giants-makes-bold-statement-on-hc-brian-dabolls-future"></div>


<h2>Malik Nabers’ performance in the 2024 NFL</h2>



In his first season as a pro, wide receiver Nabers had 35 receptions for 386 yards and three touchdowns. This is not a bad start for a rookie who has already suffered a career-altering injury in just a few weeks, a precedent that could be complicated and that deserves to go slowly so as not to accelerate the recovery time. Meanwhile, the Giants, who are 2-3 and in fourth place in the NFC East, are living key days for their season expectations.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants">New York Giants</a>‘ start to the NFL season has certainly been less than ideal. Heading into Week 3 with a 0-2 record puts coach Brian Daboll in the spotlight. In light of this situation, a former Super Bowl champion with the New York franchise made his stance clear.



The player in question is none other than star WR Victor Cruz, Super Bowl XLVI champion with the Giants, who has weighed in on the coach’s situation and the current state of the franchise, which hasn’t had the best start to the season.



In an interview with ClutchPoints, conducted in conjunction with his partnership with Captain Morgan, Cruz shared his thoughts on coach Brian Daboll: “It’s interesting, up until this point, we love coach Brian Daboll.



“I think he provided a necessary spark, the players love him. He’s a players coach that guys love but he also has that strong mentality to galvanize the guys, which I also love. But as you know in this league, it’s what have you done for me lately? So I don’t know. I think if he doesn’t have a good year, if they don’t have a year over .500 and potentially in the hunt (playoffs), I could see John Mara in the front office looking for a different head coach and looking for someone that can get them over the hump.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240916_BUS_235624_Victor-Cruz-1-1024x576_c1754284.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Victor Cruz" class="wp-image-235635" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Victor-Cruz-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Victor-Cruz-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Victor-Cruz-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Victor-Cruz-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Victor-Cruz-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Victor Cruz #80 of the New York Giants celebrates his touchdown against the Cleveland Browns during their game at MetLife Stadium on October 7, 2012 in East Rutherford, New Jersey.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Victor Cruz and the Giants’ return to the spotlight</h2>



Victor Cruz was a crucial player on the Giants’ Super Bowl XLVI team in 2011, serving as Eli Manning’s top target. The former undrafted free agent set a franchise record with 1,536 receiving yards that season, alongside 82 catches and nine receiving touchdowns.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-fines-antonio-pierces-las-vegas-raiders-with-substantial-penalty-after-davante-adams-teammates-actions"></div>


That’s why he’s aware that the Giants have long been absent from the league’s spotlight, and he had this to say about it: “It’s been a long time since we’ve been in those relevant conversations from a football perspective.



“I know John Mara wants to be in those conversations. He enjoys his team winning and competing for Super Bowls and I think he’s trying to get back there as much as possible and the best way he can. If he feels like he needs to make a change at the head coaching position at the end of the year, I think he’ll do so.”

<h2>Giants and their upcoming challenges</h2>



Although <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brian-daboll">Brian Daboll</a>‘s arrival with the New York franchise quickly bore fruit with a playoff berth after several years, this season’s results have not met expectations, which could have short-term repercussions.



The recent loss to the Washington Commanders has left the coach on thin ice, as he faces a critical matchup against the Cleveland Browns, who are coming into the game against the Giants with a winning streak.



Although fans, the team, and the management all hope to turn the situation around and secure a victory to get back on track, falling to 0-3 next weekend would likely prompt decisive actions to improve results in the short term.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants">New York Giants</a> arrived in the 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nfl">NFL</a> season with high aspirations. Last year, Brian Daboll was named Coach of the Year and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/daniel-jones">Daniel Jones</a> had such a great streak that he earned a massive contract extension.



But only four weeks into the new season, pressure is already starting to mount on them. The offense has been <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/giants-darren-waller-takes-a-shot-at-daniel-jones-led-offense-20231003-BUS-71426.html">particularly poor this year</a>, having scored 0, 31, 12, and 3 points in each of their four games so far.



On Monday, the Giants suffered an embarrassing 24-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at MetLife Stadium in prime time. Everyone at the team looked frustrated, especially Daboll – who had a viral moment with Jones on the sidelines.



<h2>Daniel Jones, Brian Daboll set the record straight after sideline moment</h2>



Shortly after Jones threw a pick-six to Devon Witherspoon in the third quarter, Daboll was seen rewatching the play with the quarterback on the sidelines before tossing the tablet on the bench.



“I mean, we were all frustrated,” Jones said Wednesday. “Just a costly mistake. I can’t afford to do that. We were all frustrated and that’s part of it. We were all frustrated and can’t afford to make that mistake. You’ve got to put it away immediately and get back out there and play ball. Can’t afford to dwell on any of that very long. Obviously, after the game, you try to learn from it and see where you went wrong.”



The moment went viral in seconds, but both Jones and Daboll downplayed the incident. The coach referred to his quarterback as a “coachable” person, though he admitted they have work to do.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231005#BUS#72658"></div>


<h2>How much does Daniel Jones make a year?</h2>



Having signed a four-year, $160,000,000 contract with the New York Giants in the offseason, Daniel Jones’ average annual salary is $40 million.

But it seems like other teams have figured the Giants out as of late. It’s either that or the multiple injuries on both sides of the gridiron, as they’ve now dropped three consecutive games and some believe theirgood run is over.
However, their Head Coach doesn’t want to hear anything about that. For Daboll, their season isn’t at a crossroads, and their recent stretch is only proof of how difficult it is to win in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-sends-stern-warning-about-the-cowboys-20221125-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Football League.</a>
<h2>NFL News: Brian Daboll Doesn’t Think Their Season Is At A Crossroads</h2>
“No, I see it as getting ready to play Washington,” Daboll told the media. “Yeah, just come back, do the same stuff we always to each week. Get ready to play a game. Take some rest. It’s been a tough 12 days. Obviously, we haven’t gotten the results we were looking for but I think we’ve got to just get a little bit of rest, mental recovery, physical recovery.”
“Come back on Monday and get ready to play another division game. They don’t get any easier,” Daboll added.“Each week is tough, and we’ll stick with our practice, our preparation, all the things we need to do to try to go ahead and give us an opportunity to win a game. But, again, it’s the ebbs and flows of a season.”

The Giants will now face another divisional rival and a team on the rise in the Washington Commanders, so things won’t get any easier for the foreseeable future. Will they turn things around? Remains to be seen.

The former Miami Dolphins HC shut the door on any potential job for the foreseeable future, but still chose to sue the league and multiple organizations <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/brian-flores-lawsuit-against-nfl-and-3-of-its-teams-leaks-100000-bribery-attempt-to-purposely-lose-games-20220201-0042.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">over alleged racism in hiring.</a>
Flores shared proof of how his interview was nothing more than a ‘box check’ over the league’s Rooney Rule, claiming that they had already made up their minds long before bringing him in.
Moreover, the former New England Patriots’ assistant recently claimed that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/tom-brady-shockingly-reacts-to-bill-belichicks-retirement-compliments-20220203-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bill Belichick</a> influenced the New York Giants’ decision to hire Brian Daboll as their new coach instead of him.
<h2>Brian Flores Says Bill Belichick Influenced The Giants To Hire Brian Daboll</h2>
“I think there are back channel conversations and back channel meetings that are had that oftentimes influence decisions,” Flores told Jay Williams. “I think [the Giants hiring process] is a clear example of that. Bill Belichick is a clear example of that. His resume speaks to that. It was clear to me that decision was made with his influence. That’s part of the problem. That needs to change. There needs to be a fair and equal opportunity to interview and showcase your abilities to lead and earn one of those positions.”
 
<div class="ck-related-news"> 
<div id="relatedNews-58"> </div>
</div>

<h2>Giants Deny Belichick’s Influence</h2>
The Giants were quick to dismiss that narrative and deny every single one of Flores’ accusations. Per the team, Belichick didn’t have any say in their decision and Flores was a legit candidate for the job:
(Statement via Giants)
“Brian Flores has raised serious issues in the filing of his complaint. The specific claims against the Giants and Mr. Flores’ allegations about the legitimacy of his candidacy for our head coach position are disturbing and simply false.”
“(…) After we interviewed six exceptional and diverse candidates, the decision on who we would hire as head coach was made on the evening of January 28, one day after Mr. Flores spent an entire day in our offices going through his second interview for the position, meeting with ownership and other staff members, and receiving a tour of our facility. There is additional concrete and objective evidence to substantiate we did not make our decision until the evening of the 28th.”
“(…) The allegation that the Giants’ decision had been made prior to Friday evening, January 28, is false. And to base that allegation on a text exchange with Bill Belichick in which he ultimately states that he ‘thinks’ Brian Daboll would get the job is irresponsible. The text exchange occurred the day before Coach Daboll’s in-person interview even took place. Giants’ ownership would never hire a head coach based only on a 20-minute Zoom interview, which is all that Mr. Daboll had at that point. (…) It has been well documented how much research and due diligence we did on Mr. Flores as it related to his candidacy.”
This story isn’t going to go away any time soon, as Flores has repeatedly stated that he won’t back down in his fight against systematic racism within the NFL. Now, we’ll have to wait and see how this unfolds.
