Odell Beckham Jr. is going back to where it all started.

The NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo report the 33-year-old wide receiver is rejoining the New York Giants.

Beckham was originally taken with the 12th overall selection of the 2014 NFL Draft by the Giants out of LSU. He would go on to spend his first five seasons with the team, appearing in 59 games. He hauled in 390 receptions for 5,476 yards and 44 touchdowns. Beckham was named to three Pro Bowls in his time with the Giants.

After signing a five-year, $95 million extension with the Giants in 2018, he was dealt to the Cleveland Browns ahead of the 2019 season. Since his trade from the Giants, Beckham has gone on to appear in 60 games over the next seven years, missing the entirety of the 2022 and 2025 seasons.

The New Orleans native’s career has been ravaged by injury with two ACL tears and another undisclosed surgery. After his release from the Browns in 2021, Beckham would go on to suit up for the Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins and Baltimore Ravens, winning Super Bowl LVI with the Rams. He last played with the Dolphins in 2024, appearing in nine contests and making nine catches.

For his career, Beckham has 575 receptions for 7,987 yards and 59 touchdowns in 119 career games.
