When it comes to Instagram, no NFL player is more popular than New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.

A new study by OnlineGambling.ca compiled Instagram follower counts of some of the NFL's biggest stars, and found that Beckham leads the league by a landslide. Cam Newton and Tom Brady were tied for second place, followed by Russell Wilson, J.J. Watt, and Rob Gronkowski.

Beckham's follower count has increased to 11.2 million since the numbers were pulled in May, while Brady has added 300,000 followers. Newton's total remains at 4 million.

The study also broke down the most followed players based on division and team.
