Odell Beckham Says It Would Mean Everything to Make the Giants' Roster
Odell Beckham Jr. caught three passes for 53 yards, and John Harbaugh would not commit to his place on the 53-man roster.
On Friday, August 28, wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. caught three passes for 53 yards during the New York Giants' preseason finale against the New York Jets, leaving him on the roster bubble.
Seeking to revive his career after spending 2025 out of the league, the 33-year-old signed a one-year contract worth $1.3 million with the Giants and competes for depth after Calvin Austin III's season-ending injury.
Head coach John Harbaugh praised the veteran's performance, stating, "I think he has done enough to make an NFL roster for sure," while acknowledging his improvement throughout training camp.
CBS Sports announcer Ian Eagle reported that team insiders indicated Beckham is likely to make the roster, while the wide receiver said it would mean "everything" to earn a spot.
The New York Giants face a 6 p.m. ET deadline on Sunday, August 30, to trim their roster to 53 players, with management deciding whether Beckham's performance warrants a permanent spot.
