Exclusive | New Orleans attack sent shock waves through Giants locker room: ‘It’s sickening’

Malik Nabers spoke softly, the sadness in his voice impossible to miss.

The New Year’s tragedy in New Orleans that reawakened yet again the evil that lives among us and forced us to come to grips with another death toll and casualty count weighed heavily on Wednesday on the prized Giants rookie. He grew up in Youngsville, La., two-plus hours away from Bourbon Street, and made himself the sixth pick of the 2024 NFL Draft at LSU. He calls Louisiana his home state.

“I seen they had a video, but I’m not gonna watch the video, but my heart goes out to those people that got injured, my heart goes out to the family that people have got killed,” Nabers told The Post, “but it’s sad that it happened in my home state. My prayers and condolences to the families.”

Nabers learned about it after Wednesday’s practice before his lift from Senior Director of Football Communications Dion Dargin.
