Giants still in talks to trade Beckham Jr.

The New York Giants are still involved in potential trade talks regarding mercurial wideout Odell Beckham Jr., according to The Athletic's Jeff Howe. Multiple reports throughout the offseason suggested the Giants would have to be overwhelmed to accept a deal for the wideout, which would leave the team holding $16 million in dead cap space.

Beckham, 26, signed a 5-year, $90 million deal, with $65 million guaranteed, before last season. The San Francisco 49ers, who currently hold the second pick in the draft, have been rumored to have a strong interest in Beckham.

Beckham returned last season after being limited to four games in 2017 and caught 77 passes for 1,052 yards and six touchdowns, but was hampered by injuries down the stretch. For his career, Beckham has 390 catches for 5,476 yards and 44 TDs in 59 games. The Giants selected him No. 12 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft.

Beckham also caused turmoil within the organization by not publicly backing quarterback Eli Manning during an in-season interview.
