Odell Beckham Jr. was featured prominently today in Giants practice after not receiving many opportunities throughout the first week of camp. He has run routes well and gotten open. Today, he got more snaps and got the ball. Juju Smith-Schuster (knee swelling) didn’t practice, and Darius Slayton seemed to be having his workload managed. So OBJ steps forward #talkinball

Thank you Boston. It meant so much to be able, for one last time, to be allowed an opportunity to do what I love, in a place I love, surrounded by those I love. Our performances are only meaningful if YOU the audience invest in us and decide they are. The smile on my face and awe in my eyes in this small clip is an honest show of grateful disbelief & appreciation for all you’ve ever invested in me. Last night meant more than I can ever express. Thank you Boston.
