The New York Giants had a terrifying moment on Sunday when Odell Beckham Jr. left practice with an apparent knee injury.
Beckham reportedly got tangled up with Janoris Jenkins and left practice early.
Trainers swarm OBJ after he gets tangled up w Jenkins on deep pass and seems to injure left leg. Looks like low leg, ankle.

Odell walking gingerly. But on field with teammates now during short break in practice. We'll see if he goes back to action.

That will come as welcome news for the Giants and their fans. We were just about to question whether the curse had struck again. Instead, it sounds minor, and Beckham will be back sooner rather than later.
