The New York Giants play their home games at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The venue is notorious for its turf field and the bad injuries that are suffered on it.
The Giants were playing the New York Giants in Week 4, and star wide receiver Malik Nabers went up for a grab. Before he did, his cleat appeared to get caught in the turf right before he jumped. It resulted in an awkward motion, and when he came down, he instantly started grabbing at his knee.
Malik Nabers has gone down with an apparent injury. He is being carted off the field.
