Pat Shurmur expects Odell Beckham to have no limitations in training camp
Odell Beckham Jr. did not take part in team drills during mandatory minicamp this week, but Giants head coach Pat Shurmur does not expect the star receiver to be limited for much longer.
Shurmur told reporters on Thursday that he has been given “no reason to believe” Beckham will not be 100 percent cleared by the time training camp begins next month.
Pat Shurmur says he expects Odell Beckham to report to Giants training camp on time and he has “no reason to believe” he won’t be able to participate fully in all drills.
