Odell Beckham Jr. sat on stage at Fanatics Fest in New York and entertained a fan’s demand, which encouraged the veteran wide receiver to re-sign with the New York Giants.
With a smile, Beckham responded: “I got you.”
Of course, that didn’t lead to the Giants rushing to get a contract in front of the NFL wideout to sign, but it showed that Beckham would be open to reuniting with the franchise that helped him find early success in the NFL, following his successful run at LSU.
When Beckham posted to Instagram a couple of days later, he added fuel to the reunion hype.
“Mannn yo daddy did some Krazy [expletive] here,” Beckham said via Instagram.
“We changed the game [and] inspired a generation who came behind us. We still got more to do… I’m loving every second I get [with you and] can’t wait to see what [you] do in this world…. [your] turn twin.”
Beckham’s post was a dedicated message to the 32-year-old’s son, but the fact that they are sitting on the ground staring at MetLife Stadium caused a stir amongst NFL fans.
A lot of time has passed since Beckham’s playing days with the Giants. In 2014, Beckham played in 12 games as a rookie, exceeding 1,300 yards and scoring 12 touchdowns. Over the next two seasons, he crossed the 1,300-yard threshold and totaled 23 touchdowns.
The 2017 season was a quiet one for Beckham, who battled injuries. As a result, he appeared in just four games. When Beckham returned for 12 games the following year, he racked up another 1,052 yards and scored six touchdowns. His run with the Giants ended via trade. In 2019, Beckham joined the Cleveland Browns.
After a stellar first season in Cleveland, Beckham’s physical setbacks started to pile up. As a result, his production took a hit. In 2020, he played in just seven games for the Browns. In 2021, he played in six games for Cleveland before they traded Beckham to the Los Angeles Rams.
Right as the Rams were reaching the finish line as NFL Champions, Beckham suffered a knee injury, which forced him to miss the entire 2022 season.
Single runs in Baltimore and Miami were quiet campaigns for the three-time Pro Bowler. At this point, Beckham is a free agent and potentially willing to get back out on the field sometime soon. Will it be with Russell Wilson’s Giants? Only time will tell.
