The New York Giants have released wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr after just three games of his comeback season.
Odell Beckham Jr has been released by the New York Giants after appearing in just three games of the season. The wide receiver had signed a one-year contract worth $1.3 million in June, marking an emotional reunion with the franchise that selected him 12th overall in the 2014 draft.
Beckham failed to make an impact during his brief comeback, finishing without a single catch across the three games. The Giants' decision to cut him came after the team determined his performance did not meet expectations.
Giants head coach John Harbaugh addressed the release, stating it was a straightforward football decision rather than the result of any behind-the-scenes drama. He characterised the move as a routine roster decision, downplaying speculation about the circumstances surrounding Beckham's departure.
