Eli Manning hilariously shuts down comeback talk as Giants explore Odell Beckham Jr reunion possibility
A viral Odell Beckham Jr. touchdown clip had New York Giants fans calling for a reunion, prompting a hilarious response from retired quarterback Eli Manning on X.
Eli Manning, who threw the touchdown to Beckham in the clip, had some fun with it.
"Guys, I’m not coming back to play! Stop asking," Manning posted on X.
Manning retired after the 2019 season, ending a 16-year run with the team. Toward the end of his career, Manning struggled, as the team went 9-26 in his starts over the last three seasons of his career.
Before Manning’s play declined, Beckham was one of his favorite targets. Manning threw more touchdowns to Beckham (44) than to any other player in his career.
Beckham was electrifying in New York. In five seasons with the Giants, Beckham played 59 games, catching 390 passes for 5,476 yards and 44 touchdowns.
He was then stunningly traded to the Cleveland Browns and never recaptured that same form, spending just two and a half seasons with them before they released him.
The Giants recently brought Beckham in for a workout. He played under coach John Harbaugh with the Baltimore Ravens in 2023. The 33-year-old was productive as a depth receiver, catching 34 passes for 565 yards and three touchdowns.
"He and I do talk. We do text," Harbaugh said. "We've maintained a really great relationship. He's one of my very favorite people in the world. It's not like you don't talk to guys on things like that. And certainly we have."
"We’ll just have to see where it all goes, what’s best for him, what’s best for the Giants."
While the Giants have to see where it goes with Beckham, they know for sure Manning is staying in retirement.
