Odell Beckham Jr. Is Signing With The New York Giants

Former LSU wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has signed with the New York Giants, reuniting with the team that drafted him back in the 2014 NFL Draft.

Beckham Jr. will also reunite with John Harbaugh, whom he played for during the 2023 season in Baltimore. Per ESPN:

The Giants were deliberate throughout the process of potentially signing the 33-year-old wide receiver as a free agent. Giants coach John Harbaugh has a history with Beckham from the 2023 season in Baltimore and said they maintain a good relationship. Beckham had 35 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns that season.

A reunion with Beckham is a full-circle moment. The lightning-rod wide receiver was drafted by the Giants with the 12th overall pick in the first round of the 2014 NFL draft. He was off to a record-breaking start with three seasons of 1,300-plus yards before injuries and controversies derailed his career in New York.

Beckham's role will be significantly different from that in his first go-round with the Giants, when he was a bona fide No. 1 receiver and a perennial Pro Bowler.

Beckham has played in just nine games over the past two years.
