Odell Beckham Jr. Trade Unlikely
7 years agoUpdating a previous report, the New York Giants are more likely to reach an extension with wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. than trade him. “I’d be very surprised,” a source told Newsday regarding a trade of Beckham this week. The main objective of the Giants is to work with Beckham and come to an agreement on an extension. Owner John Mara started speculation of a potential Beckham trade on Sunday when he mentioned that Beckham wasn't "untouchable" when it comes to trade offers. The Giants are also prepared for a lengthy holdout from Beckham this summer if he doesn't get the contract he wants. We'd be pretty surprised if New York traded their best player, but contract negotiations may be slow and excruciating with the team fed up with OBJ's off-field distractions. Either way you look at it, Beckham remains an elite NFL talent.
