Q. What was today like for you? A little bit different than OTAs?
MALIK NABERS: No, level of competition rises actually today. Competition was good today. Starting to get the offense down a little bit, I was out there playing fast.
Q. What is it about this offense that you really like?
MALIK NABERS: I mean, we got a lot of key points in the offense that makes a lot of guys move around. You can fit a receiver in any route concept we have. I think we can use that to our advantage this season.
Q. How is your rapport with Daniel and how much work do you have to put in outside to (indiscernible) not participating in the 11 on 11?
MALIK NABERS: When Daniel comes back I'm sure he's going to be helpful to the offense, but right now we focus on the guys we got in right now.
Q. How are you balancing, No. 1 draft pick, a lot of pressure on you? How are you balancing keeping your focus and still delivering the way you know you can?
MALIK NABERS: I feel like it's no pressure. I've been playing football all my life. I'm just trying to stay up with the guys here. You know, put the competition that those older guys want to see out of me.
You know, I'm just trying to be me, trying to level my game every day I'm out here.
Q. Have you thought about what you're going to do after this week when you guys are done? You know, going to take some time off? Go home? Almost like a six-week stretch.
MALIK NABERS: Right. Right now I haven't been thinking. I'm just locked in on completing this week, coming outs here every day, practice with the group. When this time comes I'll make my decision on whether I want to take a break or continue training.
Q. You've been going at it pretty good. The pre-draft and all this stuff.
MALIK NABERS: Right.
Q. Do you feel like you could use a little refresher before training camp?
MALIK NABERS: Of course I can, but right now I'm going to stay in the books with this offense. It's a little complicated so I'm going to stay in my books and study so when I come back in training camp I'm fast and ready to go.
Q. How much of an impact do you think you can make as a rookie?
MALIK NABERS: I'm not sure. I can only be a great teammate to the guys here, help my team win some football games, do anything Coach Daboll wants me to do in the offense.
Q. You consider yourself a difference maker, don't you?
MALIK NABERS: Of course. Right now I'm trying to get the offense down, stay out here with my guys, practice at high spread. That's really it.
Q. What kind of first impression do you think you've made so far?
MALIK NABERS: I you believe a good impression. When I'm out there on the field, the level of competition rises at its highest, because my competition, I bring the dog, the juice when I'm out there.
So having me on the field, it's been helpful to those older guys here. Just trying to just bring some enthusiasm out there on the field. The celebrations, I know you seen a lot of the celebrations, so just trying to get all the guys ready to practice.
Q. What's is your overall impression of the weapons on this offense?
MALIK NABERS: Right. You know, Wan'Dale, Jalin Hyatt, Slay, every time we're out there anybody can get the ball. It's never the ball is going to one person. Anybody can be open at a certain amount of time.
So it's great sharing the field with those guys because we always fast and we all running, doing route concepts and stuff, so easy to get the ball in our hands in space.
Q. Last Thursday's practice, was that a good example of how you can take over, the way you were going deep, flying around, catching touchdowns? That a preview of what you can do?
MALIK NABERS: Yeah, I would say so. You know, just that's just me. You know, when I'm out there on the field just everything I do is just me. I can't really say I can bring it to the NFL. I can only just play at my level of competition.
That was one of those days I was playing at a high level. I'm just glad I got to showcase that with the team. That was really it.
Q. Did you land in bounds on that one?
MALIK NABERS: Of course. I'm always in bounds. (Laughter.)
Q. I know you were a playmaker in college.
MALIK NABERS: Right.
Q. Does doing it in practice at that level, I know it's not a game yet, but do you walk off the field and say, I can win here, too?
MALIK NABERS: That's how it's supposed to be. Every time I'm out there practicing I'm trying to be better. The main focus is get 1% better out there on the field; try to bring a level of energy to the team; be a great teammate and be that guy on the field that wants to practice and wants to play here.
Q. What's your message to Giants fans about what you will bring to this football team? What you bring to the equation?
MALIK NABERS: Just a humble kid, great athlete, great teammate, enthusiastic person.
That's really all.
Q. What about as far as your athletic abilities, on the football field, what do you feel your attributes are?
MALIK NABERS: Speed, tremendous catch radius, that's really it. I guess they have to see come game day.
Q. What respect the past means...
MALIK NABERS: Respect the past, create the future. That's a tat that I got when I was a youngster. Just respect how you grew up, my past, but also create the future. Change the future. Not change the future, but pad my future to be what I want it to be. That's really it.
