Malik Nabers best prop bets for Giants vs. Steelers in Week 8

By: Xaiver Aguiar

The Giants are coming off a disastrous 25-point home loss against the divisional rival Eagles last Sunday. Rookie sensation Malik Nabers had his worst game as a pro, corralling just four of his eight targets for 41 yards.

He hopes to turn his squad’s season around against a hard-nosed Steelers bunch sitting atop the AFC North. The Giants are six-point underdogs on DraftKings Sportsbook in this pivotal matchup. I’ve gone through and identified my favorite Nabers player props for this anticipated showdown.

Best Malik Nabers Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Malik Nabers 20+ 1st Quarter Receiving Yards (+175)

It’s only Brian Daboll’s third year in the Big Apple, but if this season goes sideways, there’s a chance he won’t return for 2025. There should be a sense of urgency and desire to throw some punches early. One of the best ways to do that is to get the best weapon on the field consistent touches. Nabers has just six first-quarter grabs on the campaign, and that’s unacceptable.

Getting designed looks for the LSU product on the perimeter would jumpstart an offense in dire need of a spark. I anticipate him getting the rock early and often. With his ability after the catch and downfield route-running, don’t be surprised if he smashes this line in one play.

Malik Nabers Anytime TD Scorer (+190)

After scoring just ten points in their last two outings, New York is desperate to make the end zone a more regular destination. Daniel Jones has six passing touchdowns on the year, with half of them going to Nabers. The two have a solid rapport that was sorely lacking when the latter was out of the lineup. 

Nabers’ return was subpar, but he should revert to his superstar ways after a full game under his legs. I like the 21-year-old to get loose and find the endzone for the first time in over a month.

The Massachusetts native was commenting on his sports video games by the time he could tie his shoes and fantasized about turning his favorite hobby into his future career. He might not have grown tall enough to be an elite stretch-five who could rock the rim, but this content-creating thing is a decent second option.
