New York Giants' Odell Beckham sees a lot of himself in Malik Nabers

New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. sees shades of himself in teammate Malik Nabers.

As Odell Beckham Jr. prepares to rejoin the New York Giants, he is set to work alongside emerging talent Malik Nabers. The comparisons between these two star wide receivers are clear. They both attended LSU and were first-round picks by the Giants in the NFL draft. With Beckham Jr.'s return to the team after a solid preseason, he acknowledged similarities between himself and Nabers.

In an interview with Chris Simms, Beckham said, "I see a lot of myself in him." He also shared his experience by passing on wisdom, "I've just been kind of expressing to him what I went through." Both players have dealt with injuries, and Nabers can learn from Beckham's journey. Despite not having the same explosive rookie season as Beckham Jr., Nabers has gained invaluable experience.

If Nabers can recover quickly and return in full force, the Giants' offense could be a formidable one. The article originally was published on Giants Wire.
