Odell Beckham Jr., who played just three games with the New York Giants this season after signing for $1.3 million, has joined the Minnesota Vikings' practice squad on Wednesday. The move comes as the Vikings face receiver shortages due to injuries and limited production from their current roster. Despite his limited contributions with the Giants, where he had no receptions over 20 snaps in three games, Beckham could provide a spark for the Vikings if they choose to activate him during their Week 5 game against the New Orleans Saints.

Story summary
Odell Beckham Jr., who played just three games with the New York Giants before being released, signed with the Minnesota Vikings' practice squad on Wednesday. During his brief stint with the Giants, Beckham was used sparingly, playing only 20 snaps and recording no catches despite high expectations after a teammate's injury. The Vikings are currently dealing with their own wide receiver injuries, including Justin Jefferson who is battling an ankle sprain. Beckham could see more playing time as the Vikings seek to bolster their receiving corps, although there will be no revenge game against his former team this season since the Giants and Vikings do not face each other in the regular schedule.
