Malik Nabers leads all receivers in key statistical category after Week 8
Malik Nabers has been on fire this season for LSU and leads all wideouts in receiving yards through eight games.
He has 981 yards receiving with 9 touchdowns. His latest performance was for 121 yards receiving and 2 touchdowns against Army in a 62-0 win.
Nabers is slowly approaching his numbers from last season (1,017) and should set a new career-high in receiving yards before the regular season comes to a close.
Nabers has solidified himself as one of the best receivers in the SEC, if not the country.

Nabers and LSU have one their toughest tasks yet this season up next as the Tigers take on Alabama in Tuscaloosa in Week 9. Nabers had 49 yards receiving with 1 touchdown versus the Crimson Tide last season.
LSU beat Alabama in overtime in 2022 by a score of 32-31 thanks to a bold two-point conversion try that paid off.
The FBS receiving yards leader will have another chance to the prove himself against the Alabama defense. The best players step up in the biggest games and Nabers could do just that.
