Giants don't plan to add Odell Beckham Jr. to the practice squad "at this time"
The full scope of the moves the Giants made on Tuesday made their point clear.
On Tuesday, the New York Giants made it clear they no longer needed veteran receiver Odell Beckham Jr. on their roster. Beckham has been reassigned and Braxton Berrios and Charlie Jones now occupy his spot on the 53-man roster. These two players specialize in special teams, while Beckham does not. The Giants are not expected to sign him to the practice squad at this time.
The reunion with Beckham initially offered the Giants a positive narrative that resonated with fans. However, the reality is now setting in that Beckham has not been contributing enough to the team. With their starting quarterback, Jaxson Dart, sidelined due to a knee injury, the Giants need to maximize the performance of all their players.
It became apparent that Beckham was not meeting the necessary standards, and it was time for him to depart. It remains uncertain whether Beckham will find another team, as other franchises, such as the Rams and 49ers, are also in need of a receiver. Injuries are likely to continue affecting the team. In 2025, Beckham did not play any games, and it remains to be seen if this trend will persist for the remainder of the 2026 season.
