....and hasn't been on the injury report since week 13, listed with a back injury. Not a leg injury. The last reported leg injury was week 5: hamstring (questionable)

http://www.nfl.com/injuries?week=5

Both Redskins' and Bills' fined $20k for improper reporting:

Jets fined $75k, Tannebaum $25k, Mangini $25k over improper reporting:

Pretty dumb to potentially rat out your team for not reporting your injuries if you really did play with 2 hamstring tears.

He's either a.) lying, b.) wants credit for being tough, or c.) b + he's really dumb
 
Can't lie though, that dude has the best hands I have EVER seen from any receiver. It's crazy.

We should have drafted him :0

1.) I don't know about ever, but I think if he played all 16 games he threatens Moss' rookie season for best ever

2.) How? He went in top 15.

Beckham's mouth:

Odell Beckham said he did indeed have some muscle damage, two slight tears, during the preseason. Said he's not fully healthy yet.

Beckham said he will need to shut down at some point this offseason, probably soon. Give muscles time to heal

Giants’ Odell Beckham Jr. reveals he played season with two tears in hamstring at Pro Bowl ... http://nydn.us/1wxkZXK

GLENDALE, Ariz. – The legend of Odell Beckham Jr. just became even more incredible.

It turns out that the Giants rookie receiver, who had one of the most spectacular debut seasons in NFL history, did it all with two tears in his right hamstring that still aren’t completely healed. He suffered the first tear during the spring, and the second when he tried to return on the first day of training camp.

Everyone talking about how incredible it is, lost on it all is that it hasn't been on the injury report since Week 5 just before his first game.

He was kicking field goals and playing in the Pro Bowl with an injured hamstring? Going to have to go with a, b and c.

I don't think it's his hands. It's the way he moves his arm to try to match the velocity of the ball. Just watch how his hand moves in the same direction as the ball to try to match the velocity. If you keep your hand in a static position the ball is probably going to bounce off your hand in a one handed catch.

Whatever it is, his instincts and ability to catch some poor balls are incredible. That "Greatest Catch Ever" moment only happened because that ball placement sucked.

OBJ is a beast.
 
I agree with everything but the "greatest catch ever" part. Gronk's catch over the middle was better.

I personally put it in quotes for a reason.

The catch with 3 finger tips while leaping and falling backwards was pretty incredible, you can't deny that. It's near the top of any list.

But I haven't seen every catch to qualify the "best catch ever". It's certainly near the top based on every catch I have seen though.
 
I love watching that dude play. He obviously works really hard on his game and strives to be the best he can be. He would be a perfect Patriot.
 
incredible player.

Hands like flypaper. Or so they said on nfl.
 
He also played with enough stickum on his gloves to catch an airliner in mid-flight. Cheater.
 
He's the best WR in the game

Sucks that he's wasting his talents with Eli Manning at QB. Although this means he's going to turn a bunch of poorly thrown balls into insane catches. Too bad this will give some people the illusion that Eli is actually "good".
 
Running max speed with slight hamstring tears? Yeah, sure thing Odell.

If he wasn't on the injury report and had an injury, that's cheating. The Giants should lose their 1st round pick this year and Coughlin should be suspended for the season.

Also, in view of this pattern of "pushing the envelope" by the Giants, if the PSI isn't available for that ball Beckham caught with one hand, it should count as incomplete.








I'd say I'm only kidding about these punishments, but, after last week, I'm not entirely sure.
