New York Giants' Malik Nabers Drama is Becoming Nauseating

The New York Giants defeated the Philadelphia Eagles on the road for the first time in 13 years on Sunday, coming away with a gritty 19-11 win at Lincoln Financial Field.

Clearly, the offense wasn't on point, but the Giants made enough to plays to emerge with a much-needed victory.

But one of the biggest stories of the game, for some reason, was the behavior of wide receiver Malik Nabers, who was called out by Fox broadcasters Joe Davis and Greg Olsen throughout the contest.

Davis specifically singled out Davis' "body language" while Olsen questioned whether or not Nabers' antics (if there were any) were threatening the success of the team.

Let me just say this: Nabers did look agitated at points throughout the contest, and he has made it clear in the past that he wants the football. If he doesn't get it, he isn't going to be as happy.

Welcome to the world of elite wide receivers.

It's very, very rare that you are going to find a true No. 1 receiver who isn't concerned about his own personal numbers or how many times he is being targeted. It is the nature of the beast, and Nabers is no different.

And so long as Nabers is producing, does it really matter?

Nabers racked up four straight 100-yard performances before Sunday, and it wasn't like he didn't contribute against the Eagles, catching five passes for 43 yards.

Yes, Nabers dropped what should have been a touchdown pass — one that would have salted the game away — late in the contest, but receivers drop passes. It happens.

The idea that Nabers' body language — which has always been rather consistent, by the way — should be one of the primary stores while the Giants are 5-2-1 is nonsensical.

Would it be nice if Nabers were less about himself? Sure, but clearly, it isn't hurting the team, and again, the best wide outs in football are almost always going to be selfish. But you live with it because they're really good at what they do.

Nabers has hauled in 53 receptions for 648 yards and a couple of scores through eight games this season. He is on pace for a tremendous campaign. That should be the story.

Any extra stuff about the way the 23-year-old is carrying himself on the field or how he looks shouldn't even be on anyone's radar.
