The Personal Injury Attorney in East Rutherford, NJ, You Can Trust

East Rutherford, N.J. — The last thing sensational rookie receiver Malik Nabers remembers prior to his concussion late in the fourth quarter against Dallas on Sept. 26 was New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones throwing the ball in his direction near the sideline.

That's it. He was hit by Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs as the ball reached his hands in front of the Giants' bench, was knocked to the ground and hit his head on the artificial surface at MetLife Stadium.

“I mean, it was scary when I couldn’t remember what happened or couldn’t remember, like, the last play I was in,” Nabers said Friday, a day after clearing the NFL concussion protocol. “So, yeah, it was kind of scary.”

Nabers said it was his first concussion. He believes he was knocked out on the play. His symptoms over the past three weeks were headaches and a "throbbing in the head.”

Nabers hopes to play in a game for the first time since the concussion on Sunday when New York (2-4) plays host to the Philadelphia Eagles (3-2) at MetLife Stadium. He was added to the injury report with a groin problem on Thursday but he said it's something he has played with before.

The game will mark the return of former Giants running back Saquon Barkley. He signed with the Eagles as a free agent in March.

Nabers, who led the NFL with 35 catches after four games, missed games against Seattle and Cincinnati with the concussion. He is now ranked seventh overall in receptions and his 386 yards receiving are 14th in the league.

Even though he wanted to play, Nabers said he wasn't frustrated by the amount of time he missed, noting his health was more important. He just wants to contribute this weekend.

During his recuperation, the 21-year-old Nabers took some heat for attending a Travis Scott concert at MetLife.

“That’s my business,” he said. “What I do outside this facility has nothing to do with what the media thinks or whatever they got going on, so that’s my business. So, I’m going to keep that in the house.”

Nabers said he told the Giants medical staff he was going to the concert. He said he did not face the lights and had no problem with the sound.

“I’ve been playing loud music since after the concussion in the car,” he added. “I go out with the lights on. I play the game with lights. So, I didn’t have anything with lights. It wasn’t making my head hurt. The sound wasn’t making my head hurt, so I was fine.”

Giants receivers coach Mike Groh said Friday that Nabers didn't miss any meetings because of the concussion so it was easy getting him back into the routine. He also said the sixth pick overall in the draft is easy to coach.

“He highly intelligent and really understands the game,” Groh said. “Obviously an instinctive player on the field. But when you get around him in the classroom and the walkthroughs and all that, he can handle a lot of information.”

Giants coach Brian Daboll said punter Jamie Gillan (hamstring) is going to miss his second straight game and cornerback Adoree Jackson is out with a neck injury.

East Rutherford, N.J. — Jayden Daniels didn't need to throw a Hail Mary on the final play — or do anything spectacular, really, to lead his Washington Commanders past the bumbling New York Giants.

The sensational rookie made plays with his arm and legs and got a solid supporting effort from his defense as the Commanders again showed the rest of the NFL they're for real by beating the Giants 27-22 on Sunday. Washington moved to 7-2 for the first time since 1996.

Daniels hit Terry McLaurin on scoring passes of 1 and 18 yards in the first half, and Austin Ekeler, filling in for the injured Brian Robinson, scored on a 1-yard run as the Commanders completed a season sweep of the Giants (2-7).

Commanders coach Dan Quinn said his biggest concern against the NFC East rival Giants was whether his team would recover from the emotional win over the Bears, which ended when Noah Brown caught Daniels' deep throw that was tipped to him in the end zone with no time left.

“It was like a historic win for us last week at home in the fashion it went,” Quinn said. “How do you recognize it and yet fill the tanks back up knowing you're heading back into a division game? I thought it showed a lot of maturity from the team and poise to say, ‘That was cool, now we got to get right back into the next process.’”

Daniels was in control throughout, finishing 15 of 22 for 209 yards. He iced the game with a 42-yard pass to Olamide Zaccheaus after New York got within five.

“I’m just happy for the fan base,” said Daniels, who added that his focus remains one game and one week at a time. “They can be so proud of the product we are putting out on the field.”

Austin Seibert, who kicked seven field goals in the Commanders' 21-18 win in September, added two more, and linebacker Dante Fowler had a big strip-sack early to set up the opening touchdown. The Giants have lost four straight and fell to 0-5 at home.

“Tough game, competitive game,” Giants coach Brian Daboll said. “In the end just didn’t make enough plays to get the outcome we wanted.”

Daniel Jones threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to tight end Chris Manhertz and powered his way through two tackles on a 2-yard fourth-quarter TD run for New York. He added a late 35-yard TD pass to rookie Theo Johnson, but the Giants missed both 2-point conversion attempts. Jude McAtamney kicked a 31-yard field goal in the Irishman's NFL debut.

The Giants were their own worst enemy. Jones' fumble on the sack by Fowler was ruled an incomplete pass on the field, but Washington challenged the call and won. The play started at the Washington 29 and ended with Bobby Wagner recovering the fumble at the New York 31.

New York also had a major missed tackle on a third-and-18 play late in the second quarter, leading to a first down that set up McLaurin's 18-yard TD on the next play. And the Giants had a TD called back by an offensive pass interference on fourth-and-1 from the Washington 3 while trailing 21-7.

Jones finished 20 of 26 for 174 yards. Malik Nabers, Daniels' LSU teammate, had nine catches for 59 yards. Nabers had a friendly exchange with Daniels after an incomplete pass in the fourth quarter.

Nabers would not say what the two discussed. He was willing to comment on Daniels' play.

“Nothing different. Leading his team to a win — he’s going to do that every time he steps on the field,” Nabers said.

East Rutherford, N.J. — Malachi Corley thought he scored his first NFL touchdown for the New York Jets — but the rookie wide receiver dropped the ball before he crossed the goal line.

And it rolled out of the end zone. So, no touchdown, a turnover for the Jets and one huge rookie mistake.

“First of all, you can’t do that,” interim coach Jeff Ulbrich said he told Corley. “Second of all, you owe us one.”

With the Jets — who went on to beat Houston 21-13 on Thursday night — at the Texans 19 early in the second quarter, Corley took the toss from Aaron Rodgers and zipped down the right sideline. Corley sped into the end zone, but just before he crossed the goal line, he dropped the ball out of his right hand to celebrate.

A video review showed he had not gotten into the end zone before he dropped it. So, Corley was credited with an 18-yard run and a fumble. And because it rolled out of the end zone, it was a touchback and a turnover.

The play left the crowd at MetLife Stadium — which was only about three-quarters full on Halloween night — stunned.

“Definitely frustrated, to be honest,” Ulbrich said about his initial reaction. “And angry at the same time. But, what an amazing opportunity for this kid to grow and learn from. I promise you 10 years from now when he’s still playing in this league that will never happen again.”

Corley was a third-round draft pick out of Western Kentucky who has seen little action this season. He entered with just a 4-yard catch in four NFL games.

The early touchdown celebration was reminiscent of DeSean Jackson's gaffe while he was a rookie with Philadelphia during a “Monday Night Football” game in the 2008 season. He celebrated a touchdown against Dallas prematurely by flipping the football behind him at the 1-yard line before he got into the end zone.

Rodgers said during his weekly appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” on Friday that the Jets had actually shown the players the mistake last week by Atlanta's Kyle Pitts, who pulled up near the end zone at the end of a 49-yard touchdown and safety Antoine Winfield knocked the ball out of Pitts' hand. Officials ruled that Pitts had crossed the goal line before the ball came loose.

“So it's definitely on his radar,” Rodgers said of Corley. “Great play call, great execution. The only thing I'd just say to Malachi, and I said this to him on the sideline: 'Why would you ever even drop the ball? That's your first touchdown. You celebrate with that thing, you run to the sideline with that thing.'"

And then, Rodgers told him, he should've handed the ball to one of the team's equipment crew members to make sure he had his touchdown keepsake secured.

“And you say: 'I want this back. I'm just giving this to you right now, but this is mine,'” Rodgers said. “I mean, it's his first touchdown. But listen, he was excited. It's a play that happened. It sucks, it's disappointing. Nobody feels worse than he does, but it's kind of a crazy thing.”

During a video call Friday, Ulbrich echoed Rodgers' sentiment that Corley should've never let go of the football.

“Never make it close,” the interim coach said. “Like, we don’t put anything in the hands of the ref, ever, so that is 100% on us as coaches, making sure we emphasize it, and the player executing that you squeeze that ball hard enough to pop it until you absolutely are in the end zone.”

Oasis, the Britpop band known for timeless hits like “Wonderwall” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” just announced the North American leg of their reunion tour set for next summer, a jaunt that will bring them to MetLife Stadium as the band ends a 15-year hiatus and, presumably, the long-held feud between brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher.

Days after their return, the band claimed their 8th UK No. 1 album with the 30th anniversary of their electrifying debut albumDefinitely Maybe, while at the same time occupying two other spots in the top 5 UK albums chart.

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final will be held in New Jersey, home of the NFL’s New York Giants and New York Jets, world football’s governing body has announced.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino announced the venue lineup for the revamped tournament on Saturday.

The expanded 32-team tournament, which will feature leading clubs from around the world, will be held around the United States from June 15 to July 13.

A total of 12 venues will be used for the tournament with only two of them on the West Coast – the Rose Bowl in Pasadena near Los Angeles and Lumen Field in Seattle.

The tournament is taking place at the same time as the regional CONCACAF Gold Cup which will be held mainly on the West Coast.

The open-air stadium for the final, which opened in 2010 and has a capacity of 82,500, held the Copa America Centenario final in 2016 when Chile denied Lionel Messi’s Argentina for a second time in a penalty shootout. It will also host the FIFA World Cup 2026 final.

The other venues which will host games are – Mercedes-Benz Stadium (Atlanta), Bank of America Stadium (Charlotte), TQL Stadium (Cincinnati), Hard Rock Stadium (Miami), GEODIS Park (Nashville), Camping World Stadium (Orlando), Inter&Co Stadium (Orlando), Lincoln Financial Field (Philadelphia) and Audi Field (Washington, DC).

The Club World Cup will feature title-winning teams from each of FIFA’s continental confederations.

The draw for the tournament will be held in December, with 30 of the 32 places already secured through the qualification procedure.

Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich are among the 12 European teams who have qualified for the tournament while Argentina’s River Plate and Boca Juniors and Brazil’s Flamengo are among six South American teams.

“This new FIFA competition is the only true example in worldwide club football of real solidarity and inclusivity, allowing the best clubs from Africa, Asia, Central and North America and Oceania to play the powerhouses of Europe and South America in an incredible new World Cup which will impact enormously the growth of club football and talent globally,” Infantino said.

The tournament will be viewed as a key test ahead of the World Cup 2026 and there will be a focus on security issues after crowd problems at July’s Copa America games at the stadiums in Charlotte and Miami.

FIFA has yet to announce any broadcast deals or sponsorship contracts for the tournament and the competition has faced some opposition within the game.

FIFPRO and the European Leagues body filed a joint complaint to the European Commission against FIFA over the introduction of the tournament into the international match calendar.

Opponents of the new tournament have said it adds further congestion to an already crowded schedule and increases the workload of players.

The last version of the Club World Cup featured seven teams in a knockout format and was won by Manchester City who beat Brazil’s Fluminense in the final in Saudi Arabia.

FIFA plans to hold the expanded tournament every four years, although no host has yet been chosen for the 2029 edition.
