Report: Beckham meets with Giants about potential return
Odell Beckham Jr. met with New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh on Monday at the league's annual meetings to discuss a potential return to the franchise where his career started, sources told ESPN's Jordan Raanan.
Although a deal isn't imminent, there's a possibility the Giants schedule a workout for Beckham in the near future, Raanan reports.
Interest in a reunion hasn't been one-sided either, as New York has left the door open for Beckham's return. Harbaugh said Monday that the 33-year-old might be an option for the Giants this season.
Quarterback Jaxson Dart and wide receiver Malik Nabers have told the franchise they would be in favor of adding Beckham, Raanan adds.
In addition to his ties with the Giants, Beckham played under Harbaugh with the Baltimore Ravens in 2023.
Beckham last played in the NFL in 2024, catching nine passes for 55 yards with the Miami Dolphins. His last 1,000-yard season came in 2019, with the 537 yards he posted in 2023 marking his highest single-season total since.
Drafted in the first round by the Giants in 2014, Beckham became a superstar during his time in New York. He began his career with three straight Pro Bowl seasons, recording at least 90 receptions, 1,300 yards, and 10 touchdowns in each of those campaigns. The Giants traded Beckham to the Cleveland Browns ahead of the 2019 campaign.
