Harbaugh: Nabers not 'at full-speed yet'
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Wan'Dale Nabers has shown steady improvement in training camp, moving closer to participating in live drills after recovering from a torn ACL and meniscus surgery, with positive reports on his knee and mobility.
- Nabers avoided the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list at the start of training camp, increasing the likelihood of his availability for Week 1 against the Cowboys, though his workload remains limited early on.
- While there was a minor scare during practice involving safety Tyler Nubin, both players are fine, and Nabers is expected to join live team periods soon, signaling progress in his recovery.
- Fantasy managers have found a buying opportunity due to Nabers’ suppressed draft value amid injury concerns, as he projects as a high-end WR1 if healthy and ready for early-season action.
- Nabers’ status will continue to be monitored closely, especially regarding potential placement on the active/PUP list when veterans report to camp, but current trends suggest a positive outlook for his 2024 season participation.
