Malik Nabers will be back on the field this weekend for the New York Giants after missing two games with a concussion.
The rookie phenom tried to make a tip-toe sideline catch to keep the G-Men alive against the Dallas Cowboys, but the pass fell incomplete, and Nabers face-planted into the MetLife Stadium turf.
Nabers had no idea how he wound up on the sideline with his helmet off.

"It was scary when I couldn't remember what happened. I can't remember the last play I was in. So, yeah, it was kind of scary," Nabers told reporters Friday. "Last thing I remember was [Daniel Jones] throwing me the ball. That was it."
Ahead of the injury, it was yet another dominant performance by Nabers. He had caught 12 passes for 115 yards. In the four games he has played, he has 35 receptions for 386 yards and three scores.
While nursing the injury, though, he caught flak after he attended a Travis Scott concert at MetLife Stadium despite still being in concussion protocol. Head coach Brian Daboll said Nabers had not violated any rule, but he declined to give his reaction. Nabers, too, declined to speak about the team's reaction, but he said he told the team he was attending the concert ahead of time.
