Malik Nabers was forced to exit the New York Giants vs Los Angeles Chargers Week 4 game on Sunday with an apparent knee injury. While the Giants have not determined the severity of the injury yet, fans fear an ACL tear, which could sideline the wide receiver for weeks.

Nabers was carted off the field with 6:12 remaining in the second quarter. This came as Jaxson Dart fired a ball down the sideline, looking for the star WR. Nabers went up, but came down without the ball. He had sustained what looked like a scary injury.
The receiver's knee was buckled as he went up for the pass. Videos on social media showed Nabers looking visibly upset as he was carted off.
