The comeback of wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to the New York Giants is complete. On Sunday afternoon, it became official: Beckham was named to the Giants' 2026 initial 53-man roster.
Beckham, who last played for the Giants in 2018, has never gotten the Giants out of his system and is both elated and grateful to be back in Blue.

"I am excited. I found out when I was walking off the field," Beckham told Anderson after practice. "Coach said congratulations,
and he said that I worked hard. I told him I will give him everything I got. He said, 'Let’s go do it.'
"After that, I went to the locker room and I just dapped up my teammates. Jameis (Winston) definitely gave love, and so did Jaxson (Dart). Everybody gave me love. Now I just got to go get it. I have one more gear to go; one more gear in me. I came to New York to give my all, and that's what they’re going to get out of me. To the city, to the fans, I love you."
Beckham, 33, will be a third or fourth option at wide receiver in a group that features Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton, Malachi Fields, and Darnell Mooney.
