While attending a celebrity softball game near his old stomping grounds, Odell Beckham Jr. almost felt like a New York Giant again. A reunion could be on the table, per ESPN’s Jordan Raanan.

Speaking with the New York Post , Beckham felt the love of the Giants fans in attendance, saying he really never wanted to leave. A first round pick in 2014 out of LSU, Beckham played for New York until 2019. Ahead of the 2019 NFL Draft, following five seasons with the Giants, the team traded him to the Cleveland Browns.

Since then, Beckham bounced around with the Browns, Los Angeles Rams, Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins through 2024 and did not play last year. Even with a Super Bowl ring with LA in 2021 on his finger, nothing felt steady like the Giants.

“Man, it feels great,” Beckham said of the reception.“You know, it’s a place I never wanted to leave, and it’s just a special place in my heart, just to see all these big blue jerseys. Just hoping for the best.”

Beckham played in just nine games last year, logging nine catches for 55 yards. He hasn’t played a full season since 2019 with the Browns, as well as 2016 with the Giants.
