Unlike several other superstars around the league, Odell Beckham is present at his team's training camp despite his well-known issues with his contract.
With the potential for a holdout now over, New York Giants co-owner John Mara said Thursday that negotiations with the star receiver will start "pretty soon," according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.
Mara added that he believes Beckham is "moving in the right direction" from a personal standpoint, according to Ralph Vacchiano of SNY.
Beckham is entering the final year of his rookie contract in which he's set to earn around $8 million - $12 million less than he reportedly wants to receive annually with a long-term extension.
