OBJ returns to game action for the Giants
Odell Beckham Jr., wide receiver for the New York Giants, checked into a preseason game against the Vikings on August 16, 2026, his first game appearance in more than two years. The crowd gave him a strong ovation on his return.
Beckham's last game action came on January 28, 2024, in a postseason game with Baltimore. He signed with the Giants on June 4, 2026, after a second workout with his former team.
Where does OBJ land on the depth chart?
Beckham is third string on the Giants right now. That placement alone keeps him off the fantasy radar in most redraft formats. He is worth monitoring in dynasty leagues if you want to speculate on an upward move through the depth chart, but there is no workload to project from a third-string preseason role.
Watch for any depth chart movement before adding him to a roster.
