Odell Beckham Jr., who recently played for the Giants as part of their coaching staff’s decision to bring him back on a non-guaranteed contract worth $1.3 million, was unexpectedly released by the team despite having zero receptions in his first three games this season. In response to criticism directed at Giants coach John Harbaugh for cutting Beckham, Beckham expressed surprise and disappointment through an Instagram post, saying he didn’t see the move coming even though he knew competition was tough with Malik Nabers returning from injury and other players ahead of him on the depth chart.

Story summary
Odell Beckham Jr., a former star wide receiver for the New York Giants, expressed his surprise and disappointment after being released by the team this week despite signing a non-guaranteed contract worth $1.3 million in the offseason. Beckham took to Instagram, responding to a post criticizing Giants coach John Harbaugh's decision to cut him following zero receptions on just one target over the first three games of the season. He wrote, "I’m super smart, but I didn’t see this one my brotha," and added, "They got me!!!". Beckham had rejoined the Giants in 2023 after a year out due to injuries, but his playing time was limited as he struggled for opportunities against younger players like Malik Nabers, Darnell Mooney, and rookie Malachi Fields.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
