After a record-breaking rookie season, New York Giants<\/a> wide receiver Malik Nabers is already considered a superstar by some… But not all.<\/p>\n

Despite Nabers’ impressive production with a rotating cast of underperforming quarterbacks in 2024, some analysts feel there are still improvements to be made and development to be had. Luckily, the presence of competent quarterbacks should help.<\/p>\n

In a recent breakdown of eight NFL players who could become superstars in 2025<\/a>, Bleacher Report’s Brad Gagnon placed Nabers at No. 4 on the list.<\/p>\n

Russell Wilson might not be the quarterback he once was, but there were signs in Pittsburgh that he can still shine as an NFL starter.<\/p>\n

That alone beats the heck out of what the Giants got out of their QBs while ranking in the bottom three in terms of team passer rating and yards-per-attempt average in 2024.<\/p>\n

This all bodes well for Malik Nabers, who is still just 21 years old and managed to catch 109 passes for more than 1,200 yards in a seven-touchdown rookie season.<\/p>\n

What’s scary is how productive he was despite showing plenty of room to grow and despite lacking support both at quarterback and in the receiving corps.<\/p>\n

Add Wilson and a full offseason of refinement, and there’s a good chance Nabers joins the All-Pro picture in 2025.<\/p>\n

If not for some key drops, Nabers would likely have been given All-Pro consideration. However, he was named to the 2024 PFWA All-Rookie Team and made the Pro Bowl, albeit as an injury replacement.<\/p>\n

As a sophomore with better quarterback play, there’s no telling how high Nabers can soar. So long as he can remain healthy and eliminate some bad drops, the sky is the limit.<\/p>\n
