Beckham, who hasn't played since 2024, is hoping to suit up for the 11th season of his career in 2026.

John Harbaugh on Odell Beckham Jr.: 'He has done enough to make an NFL roster'

Veteran wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. recently returned to the NFL as a member of the New York Giants under new head coach John Harbaugh. The 33-year-old has not played a regular-season game since 2024, when he was with the Miami Dolphins. Beckham's opportunity to make an NFL roster may hinge on cracking the Giants' 53-man roster, which will be finalized by Sunday at 6 p.m. ET.

Despite the Giants carrying 11 wide receivers in the preseason, Beckham has demonstrated improvement, earning praise from Harbaugh. Harbaugh stated, "He has done enough to make an NFL roster, for sure. He’s played well. He’s gotten better as camp’s gone along." However, Beckham will need to secure a spot in the regular season alongside six to seven other wide receivers.

With his 11th career season approaching, Beckham is grateful for the opportunity and acknowledges the mental battles he has faced.
