Eli Manning Encouraged By Odell Beckham Jr.'s Progress
6 years agoNew York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is excited to have wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) back healthy this year, and Manning thinks his star wideout is in for a big season. "Odell looked healthy," Manning said, via ESPN's Jordan Raanan. "He was running routes full speed, making cuts and seemed to be his old self. So I'm excited about that and that he can go out there and run all the routes." OBJ broke his ankle in Week 4 last year, ruining any chances the Giants offense had at clicking in 2017. Much ado has been made about Beckham's contract situation, but with that put aside, he should return to WR1 status if he stays healthy this year.
