Giants release Odell Beckham Jr. after brief return to New York
Summary

The New York Giants released wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. on September 29, 2026, following a 12-7 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Beckham, who previously played for the Giants from 2014 to 2018, recorded zero catches in three games this season. He appeared in just 20 offensive snaps, contributing to the team's decision to part ways with him. Despite fans calling for his involvement, Beckham ranked low on the depth chart. The Giants are currently tied for first in the NFC East with a 2-1 record but are facing uncertainties after quarterback Jaxson Dart's season-ending injury. The team is expected to promote Braxton Berrios to the active roster.
