Odell Beckham Jr. hasn't recorded a catch since 2024. Could the Week 9 "Monday Night Football" game be his chance to get back in the box score?
The Minnesota Vikings signed the veteran wideout to their active roster from their practice squad on Monday, Nov. 9, ahead of their prime-time clash with the Buffalo Bills
. Beckham is in line to make his debut in the game just over a month after he signed with Minnesota's practice squad on Oct. 7.Beckham, 34, did not play during the 2025 season but already made his NFL comeback earlier this year. In June, he re-signed with the New York Giants for a second stint and made the team out of training camp.
The former first-round pick
played 20 snaps across three games for Big Blue to begin the regular season. He did not record a catch on his lone target in those appearances, and the Giants waived Beckham at the end of September. The Vikings signed him shortly after his release from the Giants to add depth at wide receiver.
With Jauan Jennings missing from "Monday Night Football" due to a calf injury, Beckham is up with the active roster. He may get another crack at recording his first catch in two years on Nov. 9, depending on his snap count – and whether Week 9 starter Carson Wentz looks his way.
