Moved to IR The Giants moved Nubin (neck) to injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin has not been able to practice since sustaining a neck injury after the Giants' loss to the Vikings in Week 16. The safety's move to IR will end his season since the Giants have been eliminated from playoff contention. Nubin finishes the season with 78 tackles (49 solo) and two passes defensed through 13 games.

Not going to play Week 17 Nubin (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's battle against the Raiders.

Impact Nubin had a big game this past Sunday against Minnesota, as he scored his first career touchdown on a fumble recovery. However, he's dealt with a neck injury during practice this week and hasn't been able to practice in any capacity. With Nubin out Sunday, Dane Belton and Jevon Holland should be the Giants' starting safeties.

Estimated as DNP on Thursday Nubin is listed as DNP on Thursday's estimated practice report due to a neck injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact This is the second straight day Nubin has been labeled DNP, so his status for Sunday's matchup against Las Vegas is up in the air. The second-year safety will likely need to practice in some capacity Friday to have a realistic chance of taking the field in Week 17. Nubin notched his first career NFL touchdown last week against Minnesota when he scooped up a fumble and returned it for a score.

Dealing with neck injury Nubin (neck) did not practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin may have picked up the injury during the Giants' loss to the Vikings in Week 16, when he logged six tackles (four solo) and a scoop-and-score. The 2024 second-rounder would avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders if he were to log a full practice by Friday.

Finds end zone vs. Vikings Nubin recorded six tackles (four solo) and returned a fumble for a touchdown in the Giants' loss versus the Vikings on Sunday.

Impact Nubin found the end zone for the first time in his career when he returned a J.J. McCarthy fumble for a touchdown late in the second quarter of the loss. The 2024 second-round pick will look to build on this performance and keep producing at a high level across the team's final two games of the season.

Ready to face Commanders Nubin (quadriceps) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against Washington.

Impact Nubin popped up on Thursday's injury report as a limited participant, but he resumed practicing in full Friday. The second-year pro is fully on track to handle his usual sizeable defensive workload at safety versus the Commanders.

DECEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as limited Thursday Nubin (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, but his practice reps are now being capped due to a quad issue. His availability for Week 15 may come down to the extent of his practice activity during Friday's session. If Nubin is able to practice without any restrictions Friday, he could still manage to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Commanders without an injury designation.

DECEMBER 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play Week 13 Nubin (neck) does not have an injury designation for Monday's matchup against New England.

Impact Nubin missed each of New York's past two contests while dealing with a neck issue. He was able to log an LP/FP/FP practice progression this week to set up his return to game action on Monday Night Football. Dane Belton, who has been starting in Nubin's stead, will likely return to a reserve role against the Patriots.

NOVEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Full practice Friday Nubin (neck) was a full participant in Friday's practice, Madelyn Burke of MSG Network reports.

Impact Nubin was limited Thursday, but his full participation Friday would suggest Nubin is ready to return after missing the previous two contests. Ahead of Monday night's game with the Patriots, the Giants will release their final injury report Saturday.

NOVEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Projected as limited Thursday Nubin (neck) was a limited participant in Thursday's estimated practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin was unable to play in last Sunday's loss to the Lions with a neck injury despite practicing in a limited capacity all week. The safety continuing his trend of limited participation is good for consistency, but he will likely need to log a full practice to better his chances of suiting up for Monday night's showdown with the Patriots.

Not ready to return Nubin (neck) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin was limited in practice all week due to a neck injury, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery to play Sunday and will miss a second consecutive game. Dane Belton should start at safety alongside Jevon Holland in Week 12 due to Nubin's absence.

NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Could return Sunday Nubin (neck) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact The Minnesota product was sidelined for the Giants' Week 11 loss to the Packers due to a neck injury, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he could return Sunday. Nubin has appeared in 10 games this season, recording 58 total tackles and one pass defensed. If he misses his second consecutive game in Week 12, expect Dane Belton to operate as the team's top strong safety.

NOVEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Another limited practice Thursday Nubin (neck) remained limited in practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin has opened Week 12 prep with consecutive limited practices after sitting out the Giants' loss to Green Bay in Week 11. If ultimately cleared to return Sunday against the Lions, Nubin would likely reclaim the starting strong safety role.

NOVEMBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Nubin (neck) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin missed New York's Week 11 matchup with the neck injury and was unable to practice in any capacity. It's positive that he was able to retake the field Wednesday, which sets him up for a possible return in Week 12 against the Lions.

NOVEMBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Inactive, as expected, Week 11 Nubin (neck) isn't playing against Green Bay on Sunday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin didn't practice at all this week and was deemed doubtful on Friday's final injury report, so it's not a surprise he's being held out of action Sunday. Dane Belton is likely to move into a starting role at safety alongside Jevon Holland.

NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Likely out for Week 11 Nubin (neck) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.

Impact The second-year pro from Minnesota likely sustained a neck injury in the Giants' Week 10 loss to the Bears, as he didn't practice all week and is now expected to miss Sunday's contest. Nubin has appeared in all 10 of the Giants' games this season, recording 58 total tackles and one pass defended. If he's sidelined in Week 11 as expected, Dane Belton will likely have an expanded role in New York's secondary.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with neck injury Nubin (neck) did not practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Nubin played 93 percent of defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Bears, so it's unclear when the injury occurred. Several Giants veterans did not practice Wednesday, so it's possible Nubin was simply getting extra rest. However, his practice participation for the rest of the week should provide more clarity.
