New York Giants rookie receiver Malik Nabers (concussion) has been declared out of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks and will not make the cross-country trip with the team, head coach Brian Daboll confirmed. 

Nabers suffered a concussion in last week’s 20-15 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. It was hoped that with the extra time, he would be further along in the protocol, but while he has made progress, it was not enough.

Running back Devin Singletary (groin), who has not practiced Wednesday and Thursday, would give it a go on Friday. His status will depend on how well he progressed through Friday's practice.

According to Daboll, Cornerbacks Dru Phillips and Adoree’ Jackson, both of whom missed Week 4 with calf injuries, are trending in the right direction. Both are likely to be listed as questionable, depending on how they progress through Friday's practice.
