Odell Beckham Jr. drops bombshell about Giants that could’ve altered his NFL career

Not so long ago, Odell Beckham Jr. was the wide receiver every NFL team wanted. However, he has now revealed a shocking truth about the New York Giants that could have impacted his entire career.

During the 2014 NFL Draft, the Giants made one of the best acquisitions in their history. With the No. 12 overall pick, they selected Odell Beckham Jr., a talented wideout out of LSU.

Beckham Jr. had an immediate impact on the club. While team success didn’t follow, he delivered remarkable individual performances that made him one of the best players at his position across the entire league.

Odell Beckham Jr. makes shocking revelation about his career and the Giants

Once upon a time, Odell Beckham Jr. was the most sought-after wide receiver in the NFL. His hands were impeccable, and his route running was nearly impossible to defend.

With the Giants, Beckham Jr. delivered countless unforgettable plays. However, in 2019, he was surprisingly traded—and from that moment, his career trajectory changed.

Although he later won a Super Bowl with the Rams, his level of play has never quite returned to what he showed during his early days in New York. Now, he’s made an admission that sheds new light on that pivotal moment.

Despite long-standing rumors that he requested a trade, Beckham Jr. has now shut them down. According to OBJ, he never wanted to leave New York, as he envisioned winning a Super Bowl with the team that drafted him.

“I never, ever wanted to leave the New York Giants,” Beckham Jr. said. “The reason you heard me talking about what was going on was because I was pissed because, where I come from in college, if we lost one game, our season was over.

“This was the organization I got drafted to. They believed in me. So if the Giants went and won a Super Bowl, I would be happy. But deep down inside, I wanted to be the one. No question. So it’s definitely you’ll always hold that. But then someone like me, I went to the LA Rams, won a Super Bowl. But still, you just want that.”
