Sources: Odell Beckham Jr. works out for Giants, takes physical - ESPN

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New York Giants had free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. in for a workout and physical with the team Monday, sources told ESPN.

While a return to New York remains a possibility, no signing appears imminent, according to a source. It seems likely the Giants will wait to see how the draft pans out later this week.

Beckham, 33, has expressed a desire to play this season, and wants a return to the team that drafted him in 2014 out of LSU. He even met with Giants ownership and new coach John Harbaugh several weeks back at the NFL's annual meetings to state his case.

The Giants have been open to a potential reunion and wanted to see how Beckham looked in person before proceeding. The 2014-16 Pro Bowl receiver has been training this offseason in Arizona.

Beckham did not play this past season. The previous year he appeared in nine games for the Miami Dolphins, logging nine catches for 55 yards.

The fan favorite has focused his attention on New York and has not been shy about his desire to return to the Giants.

«That sounds great; if that opportunity presents itself, I would love to do that. I would be excited about that,» Beckham said to sports show host Kay Adams in an interview before the Fanatics Flag Football Classic in Los Angeles last month.

It would take Harbaugh's approval to get him back into the NFL and to New York. Harbaugh spoke favorably about Beckham at the NFL's annual meeting in Phoenix.

Beckham played for Harbaugh in Baltimore during the 2023 season. He had 35 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns that season.

«He and I do talk. We do text,» Harbaugh said. «We've maintained a really great relationship. He's one of my very favorite people in the world. It's not like you
