2025 Fantasy Outlook
Nubin had big shoes to fill as a rookie as he was tabbed to replace Xavier McKinney after being selected in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft. He immediately played 100 percent of defensive snaps, a run that ended in Week 14 only because he suffered a serious ankle injury that required surgery to repair. Nubin offers a complete skillset, as he played 309 snaps in the box and supported the run defense well and was also regarded as an elite player in coverage entering the league. The Giants trusted him in the latter role, as he also logged 372 snaps as a traditional free safety. Assuming Nubin's health checks out, he is likely to become one of the top IDP options at defensive back due to his combination of role and skill. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $8.18 million contract with the Giants in May of 2024.
Moved to IR

ANALYSIS
Nubin has not been able to practice since sustaining a neck injury after the Giants' loss to the Vikings in Week 16. The safety's move to IR will end his season since the Giants have been eliminated from playoff contention. Nubin finishes the season with 78 tackles (49 solo) and two passes defensed through 13 games.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Giants filled a significant need when they drafted Nubin in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft following the departure of Xavier McKinney to Green Bay. Nubin was arguably the top safety in the draft following an excellent college career at Minnesota in which he racked up 13 interceptions over 48 games. He should have an opportunity to earn a starting spot in training camp, with his primary competition being third-year safety Dane Belton and veteran free-agent acquisition Jalen Mills.
