The New York Giants signed free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. on Monday, reuniting the former first-round pick with the franchise that chose him 12th overall in the 2014 NFL Draft. Beckham spent his first five NFL seasons with the Giants, earning Pro Bowl selections in each of his first three years.
“Nothin was ever given to me I worked for everything I have,” Beckham wrote Monday on Instagram. “Never give up on yourself. Home team, I’m back. … Let’s get it.”
Beckham ranks second in Giants history with 5,476 receiving yards and fourth with 44 receiving touchdowns. After his last season with New York in 2018-19, he played for the Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Rams, Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins.
Beckham has dealt with injuries and decreased production over the last several years. He was suspended for six games last season for violating the NFL’s performance-enhancing drug policy.
Rosenhaus confirmed Monday that the Giants also agreed to a one-year deal with free agent wide receiver Braxton Berrios. Berrios and Beckham join a Giants wide receivers room that includes Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton, Calvin Austin III, Malachi Fields, Darnell Mooney and Jalin Hyatt.
The Giants needed help at the position after the off-season departure of Wan’Dale Robinson, their leading wide receiver last season. Olszewski sustained a torn Achilles during organized team activities. Nabers and Slayton also are dealing with injuries.
New York selected Fields in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. The Giants signed Austin and Mooney as off-season free agents. The team will host its final sessions of organized team activities from Monday through Thursday and hold mandatory minicamp June 8-10.
The Giants will open the preseason Aug. 15 against the Minnesota Vikings at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., and begin the regular season Sept. 13 at home against the Dallas Cowboys.
