Odell Beckham Jr. Returns to Giants on One‑Year Audition Deal

The team frames the veteran‑minimum signing as a tryout that will be decided by his health and play during summer practices.

Overview

  • Beckham signed a one‑year, veteran‑minimum contract reported at $1.3 million with no guaranteed money.
  • He has taken part in the Giants’ offseason workouts and reporters posted practice videos on Wednesday showing him catching passes with quarterback Jaxson Dart.
  • Beckham told reporters he must “earn” a roster spot and said he expects to prove himself through work on the field.
  • Head coach John Harbaugh said the signing is separate from Malik Nabers’s ACL rehab and that Beckham will be evaluated strictly on fitness and performance.
  • With multiple veterans and younger receivers already in the room, Beckham faces real roster risk and the club says his summer durability will determine whether he plays or serves mainly as a mentor.
