New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers won't play in the team's Week 5 contest against the Seattle Seahawks because of a concussion, the team announced Friday.

The Giants also announced that running back Devin Singletary is doubtful for the contest due to a groin injury.

Nabers exited late in the team's Week 4 loss to the Dallas Cowboys after failing to haul in a fourth-down pass attempt and landing hard on the ground.

The sixth overall selection in April's draft leads the NFL with 35 catches through four contests. He's turned those receptions into 386 yards and three touchdowns.

Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, and Jalin Hyatt are expected to operate as the team's top receivers with Nabers unable to suit up. Robinson has been limited in this week's practices due to a heel injury, though.

Singletary, meanwhile, leads the team with 221 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 56 carries. He's played 71% of the team's offensive snaps through four games.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Eric Gray are the only other tailbacks on New York's active roster. Dante Miller is on the team's practice squad.

New York's offense ranks 21st in the league with 296.8 total yards per contest. The Seahawks have had one of the stingiest defenses to start the year, allowing the eighth-fewest total yards per game (283.8).
