Odell Beckham Jr. Consistently Getting Open at Camp

Friday, August 21, 7:34 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has consistently gotten open during training camp as he fights for a role this season. According to Connor Hughes, Beckham has gotten open even when he hasn't always been targeted. In the joint practice against the Miami Dolphins, he put his matchup in a bind and was open multiple times during the team's first preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings. With veteran JuJu Smith-Schuster released after the addition of running back Najee Harris, Beckham's path to making the 53-man roster is clearing. Given his strong camp performance and standing with the team, the veteran receiver has a solid chance to suit up with the Giants this season.

Skyler Bell Dealing With Groin Injury

Saturday, August 22, 8:50 AM

The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia reports that Buffalo Bills rookie fourth-round wide receiver Skyler Bell (groin) has been dealing with a groin injury in training camp. Bell initially suffered the injury during practice at the team's new stadium on Aug. 8 and has not practiced since, although the 24-year-old from Connecticut was seen on Thursday doing drills with the training staff. He is hoping he will be cleared to play in the team's final preseason contest on Thursday, Aug. 27, against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bell's time away from the team this summer will make it even more difficult for the rookie to make an immediate impact on a team that added receiver DJ Moore in the offseason. Fantasy managers in redraft leagues can ignore Bell for now, while he is a developmental stash in dynasty/keeper formats. In his fifth collegiate season for the Huskies in 2025, Bell put up some numbers, catching 101 passes for 1,278 yards and 13 touchdowns in 13 games played. Bell is primarily competing for playing time with Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, and Tyrell Shavers for a role behind Moore and Khalil Shakir.
