Harbaugh Says Giants Will Consider Odell Beckham Jr. Return

The public nod points to a low-cost look at veteran help for a thin receiver group.

Overview

  • Harbaugh, speaking Monday at the NFL meetings, said the Giants will "look at every option" and called Beckham "one of my very favorite people," noting they stay in regular contact.
  • Beckham was seen talking with Harbaugh at the meetings hotel, according to The Athletic, with no workout scheduled and no indication a deal is close.
  • The 33-year-old has pushed to resume his career, flashed at a recent flag-football showcase, and is eligible to play after serving a six-game PED suspension in 2025.
  • New York lacks proven depth behind Malik Nabers for quarterback Jaxson Dart, has added Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin, and saw Nabers and Dart express support for adding Beckham.
  • Any signing would likely be a short, low-risk deal for competition and mentorship, with expectations tempered by his last NFL line of nine catches for 55 yards with Miami in 2024 and a steadier 565-yard season under Harbaugh in Baltimore in 2023.
