The Giants cut wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., and coach John Harbaugh says the team concluded the move was necessary because the partnership “just wasn’t working.” Multiple outlets report Harbaugh’s comments framing the decision around Beckham’s on-field impact during his return to New York.
According to the reports, Beckham plays limited snaps and does not record a catch in his three games with the Giants. CBS Sports and The Athletic both note that he fails to make a catch during that stretch. Yahoo Sports adds that the coaching staff did not believe keeping Beckham would improve the team’s performance or get him more involved.
Across the outlets, the emphasis differs slightly in wording—some highlight a lack of production, while another focuses on whether the player would meaningfully improve the team. However, all accounts align that the decision follows limited involvement and no catches during his brief stint with the Giants.
