Odell Beckham Jr. adopts original look ahead of Giants season opener

Summary

Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. returns to the New York Giants for the 2026 NFL season, marking his comeback by reverting to his signature blonde hairstyle. After not playing during the 2025 season, Beckham earned a position on the team’s initial 53-man roster following training camp. In addition to his hair, he will wear his original No. 13 jersey, the number he wore during his first stint with the franchise beginning in 2014. The team prepares for their Week 1 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football. While Beckham moves into a supporting role within a young wide receiver group, the organization looks for him to contribute as a playmaker. The upcoming game serves as the first test for the Giants as they open their 2026 campaign against an NFC East rival.
