The New York Giants have a renewed need at receiver following\u00a0Gunner Olszewski’s recent torn Achilles tendon. All eyes turn to\u00a0Odell Beckham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The former Giants star attended\u00a0Brian Burns’ charity softball game over the weekend, signing autographs for fans and speaking to the\u00a0New York Post’s Brandon London\u00a0about the possibility of returning to his first NFL club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It’s a place I never wanted to leave,” Beckham said, “and it’s just a special place in my heart, just to see all of these Big Blue jerseys — just hoping for the best.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beckham\u00a0worked out\u00a0for the Giants earlier this offseason, and new coach John Harbaugh didn’t dismiss the idea of adding the veteran receiver, but noted it\u00a0needed to be right\u00a0for “both parties.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Giants held a WR workout on Monday, and Beckham\u00a0was\u00a0one of those in attendance. New York agreed to a one-year deal with veteran\u00a0Braxton Berrios, per ESPN. Berrios is a natural fit to replace Olszewski following a potential season-ending injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anthony Miller\u00a0and\u00a0JuJu Smith-Schuster\u00a0also worked out for the Giants on Monday, per NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. We’ll see if the Giants have any more moves to make at receiver. (EDITOR’S NOTE:<\/strong>\u00a0New York indeed\u00a0signed\u00a0Beckham later on Monday.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Beckham, 33, didn’t play at all in 2025 after receiving a six-game PED ban. He said the time away has made him appreciate the game more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I think you just rely on the things you always rely on, which is my faith,” Beckham said. “And, you know, God has a place of special purpose and journey for me, and just being able to spend that time away, just made me realize some things. You know, I left some things unfinished.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2024, Beckham appeared in nine games with the Miami Dolphins and caught nine passes for 55 yards. He hasn’t been a significant part of an offense since the Super Bowl run with the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, which ended in an ACL tear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Beckham was asked what he’d say to anyone who questions whether he still has any juice left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I guess we gonna find out soon,” Beckham said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A return to New York would be a full-circle moment for the 2014 No. 12 overall pick. Beckham earned a Pro Bowl nod and went over 1,300 yards in each of his first three seasons with the Giants before injuries began to take their toll. He has neither reached those figures nor been to a Pro Bowl since 2016. Beckham spent two more seasons with Big Blue before the trade to Cleveland in 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The New York Giants have a renewed need at receiver following\u00a0Gunner Olszewski’s recent torn Achilles tendon.
