The New York Giants continue to seek some help at wide receiver. They probably won't make any blockbuster trades for one, but adding another impact veteran or rookie could be on the table.
Odell Beckham Jr.'s name has swirled for many teams during this off-season. He's been a popular name as he works his way back from injury.
According to a report from SNY, Giants head coach Brian Daboll has had text conversations with the former Giants WR.
Beckham was in attendance for the NFL owners meetings in Phoenix on Tuesday, likely to meet with interested teams in person. According to SNY's Connor Hughes, Beckham currently doesn't not have plans to meet with the Giants while there (though Brian Daboll said he's texted with Beckham "once or twice" this offseason).
Giants head coach Brian Daboll has texted with Beckham "once or twice" this offseason, though not within the last week, he told reporters on Tuesday. Daboll, who said the conversations are private, discussed the visit the team had with Beckham last season. "He's a good young man," Daboll noted. "It was a good dinner, had good conversation."
John Mara told reporters on Monday that the team had not shut the door on a reunion with Beckham. Mara said that if GM Joe Schoen and Daboll can make it work, he's in favor.
The reunion would make plenty of sense. The Giants need more upside at the wide receiver position, but the cost is what will likely decide where the vet lands.
There seems to be interest between both Beckham Jr. and the Giants, regardless, though.
