Veteran wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is joining the Minnesota Vikings’ practice squad shortly after the New York Giants release him in late September. Multiple outlets report that Beckham Jr. had limited impact during his second stint with the Giants and was largely buried on the depth chart.
Reports describe a short window of playing time with New York, with Beckham Jr. appearing minimally across a handful of regular-season games before being let go. One outlet characterizes his role as reduced to about 20 snaps over three games, reflecting that he did not become the expected contributor. With the Vikings, he is given another opportunity, though now in a developmental practice-squad role. Across coverage, the central points are the Giants’ parting with Beckham, his quick move to a new NFL destination, and the Vikings confirming his practice-squad signing.
