​Entering training camp, the 2026 New York Giants might face more questions at wide receiver than at any other spot on the roster.If you want to argue that there are as many or questions on the defensive line, fine. At least on offense, though, no position faces as many questions as wide receiver.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAfter two surgeries to repair the OCL he tore in Week 4 of the 2025 season, there have been questions about Nabers’ availability and effectiveness early in the season. GM Joe Schoen and head coach John Harbaugh have maintained an optimistic tone throughout the offseason.That continued this week when Harbaugh appeared on ‘The Dominique Foxworth Show.’ Harbaugh said “there’s a lot of optimism” about both Nabers and running back Cam Skattebo. Skattebo was already taking practice reps during mandatory minicamp as he recovers from last season’s dislocated ankle.As for Nabers, Harbaugh said this:“Malik will be working his way into practice as camp gets started one way or another. To what degree, we will find out.”When, how much, and how effectively Nabers practices will be a major training camp storyline. He is the Giants’ best playmaker, and his presence obviously makes the offense better.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementDarius Slayton has often been the second wide receiver for the Giants, sometimes a de facto No. 1 because there wasn’t anyone else. Slayton has surpassed 700 receiving yards four times in his seven-year career. Darnell Mooney has seasons of 1,055 and 992 receiving yards on his resume. He has averaged 51.5 receptions per season over six years in the NFL.Slayton missed spring practices due to surgery to repair a sports hernia. He is coming off an inconsistent season during which he dropped 7.9% of passes thrown to him. Slayton’s 37 receptions and 538 receiving yards were the second-lowest totals of his career.Slayton, though, has made a habit of exceeding expectations. He has fashioned a solid career after being a fifth-round pick. He re-established himself as a starter and productive player after Brian Daboll and his staff buried Slayton at the bottom of the depth chart in 2022.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementMooney’s best has been better than Slayton’s best, but there has been more volatility to his career. He has three seasons with less than 500 receiving yards, including 2025. Mooney, who signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the Giants, had a quiet spring.It is unfair to expect Odell Beckham, Malachi Fields, Calvin Austin, or any of the other receivers on the roster to contribute at a WR2 level. So, the Giants will be looking for Mooney or Slayton to step up.The rookie third-round pick looked good in spring workouts. He looked dangerous on slant passes, was a red-zone threat, and made some 50-50 catches.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIt is important, though, to keep some perspective. Those were unpadded, non-contact practices with defensive backs i
