Giants’ Malik Nabers Stars in New Ad Campaign Teaching Children How to Disappoint Fantasy Football Owners Early

NEW YORK — Not content with merely crushing the playoff hopes of thousands of fantasy football managers, Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers has launched a new public awareness campaign, “Crushing Dreams: A Beginner’s Guide to Season-Ending Injuries,” to ensure the next generation can disappoint strangers from their couches with confidence.

The campaign, which debuted in a Super Bowl-adjacent spot during reruns of American Gladiators, features Nabers hobbling onto the field, tripping over a comically oversized foam ankle, and winking at the camera with the tagline, “Draft Me, Lose Big.”

“I want kids to understand that playing football means so much more than helping your actual team win—it means tanking the carefully-constructed imaginary squads of suburban dads everywhere,” Nabers explained, while signing casts with the phrase “Sorry Not Sorry, Jerry from Poughkeepsie.”

Fantasy sports influencer Chad McGrady, who finished 11th in his 12-team league, praised Nabers’ honesty. “Finally, an athlete who admits what we all know: Football is less about the game, more about ruining my Sunday.”

The Giants responded by releasing their own “Fantasy Fragility Index,” which rates players on a scale from “Highly Draftable” to “Personal Liability Exception.”

“We consider Nabers a pioneer,” said Giants marketing director Sherri Messina. “His ability to laugh at his own catastrophic misfortune while selling sports drinks and ankle braces is what being a Giant is all about.”

Sources say phase two of the campaign will focus on teaching running backs the fundamentals of mid-season hamstring pulls.
