ORLANDO - This was the definition of a dramatic pause.

Giants team president John Mara hesitated, breathed, and took several seconds Sunday afternoon to answer the question: Could he foresee a scenario in which Odell Beckham Jr. wouldn’t be on the Giants this coming season?

“I can’t answer that one way or the other,” Mara said in a hallway of the Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes in Orlando at the NFL owners’ meetings. “I mean we’re certainly not shopping him, if that’s what you’re asking (laughs). But when you’re coming off a season where you’re 3-13 and played as poorly as we played, I wouldn’t say anyone’s untouchable.”

So would Mara listen if a team called to ask for a Beckham trade?

“You always listen to those things,” Mara added, “but that’s not a scenario I would like to see happen.”

Earlier in the interview, though Mara had been asked directly if Beckham were untouchable in the wake of the Jason Pierre-Paul trade, he’d answered: “I think when you’re 3-13 that nobody is untouchable.”

Mara said he was “disappointed” in Beckham’s presence in a recent viral video that appeared to show Beckham and a model with drugs and a pepperoni pizza in bed. And though Mara hasn’t spoken to OBJ about the video since, Mara made clear such behavior makes it more difficult for him to make a long-term commitment to the player.

“I think that’s something you certainly have to take into consideration, yes,” Mara said. “I think too often he allows himself to get put in bad situations and he needs to use a little better judgment … I don’t know what was in that video exactly, but I’m tired of answering questions about Odell’s behavior and what the latest incident is. I think he knows what’s expected of him, and now it’s up to him.”

Mara also acknowledged that he wasn’t just now growing tired of Beckham’s antics. Mara admitted he was already at at that point in January at Pat Shurmur’s introductory press conference when Mara had suggested Beckham meet with Shurmur to discuss how he should “act.”

“Yeah, I think you could say that (I’d reached that point in January), yes,” Mara said. “I think it’s been an ongoing process, and listen: he knows what we expect of him. And now it’s up to him.”

Mara additionally said he thinks it’s “a possibility” that the Giants will have Beckham play on the fifth and final year of his rookie contract.

“I don’t think we’ve made a determination on that just yet,” Mara said. “In terms of the contract, that’ll get done when it’s supposed to get done, but again, he knows what we expect of him and now it’s up to him. And I still believe that he’ll be able to show us what we expect of him, but it’s up to him.”

Of course, that would be up to Beckham, too. He could hold out if he wishes for the money he believes he’s owed. He certainly has looked strong and recovered from his broken left ankle in videos he’s posted on Instagram. And the Giants’ offense that was just OK with him was ludicrously bad without him for most of 2017.

Mara, who basically guaranteed last summer that it was a matter of when and not if that Beckham would get a megadeal, now is lukewarm to the idea.

“I think at some point (we’ll get it done), but who knows,” Mara said.

GM Dave Gettleman declined comment on all matters in the Ritz lobby to the Daily News Sunday morning. Assistant GM Kevin Abrams, the man who hammers out the contracts, is here in Orlando, too.

Shurmur, at least, told the Daily News Sunday afternoon at the Ritz that he met with Beckham in California during his recent quarterback prospect tour and had a “great” meeting with OBJ.

“I had an opportunity to visit with Odell and got a chance to get to know him a little better,” Shurmur said.

Mara speculated Shurmur and Beckham may have discussed his viral video but Shurmur declined to describe their conversation in detail any further other than noting they did not talk football or his future with the team because they’re not allowed.

It’s worth asking, though, in lieu of Mara’s comments and the Pierre-Paul trade: will Shurmur even get a chance to coach Beckham this fall?

This fukking cocksucker :snoop:

Yo no lie, if they trade Odell, I’ll stop being a fan. The way they are treating him is ridiculous. Everyone likes to run the narrative that he’s a “headache” but he’s really done nothing wrong.

This whole situation is making the Giants look real funny...

“He was on tape doing crack”

Wtf are you talking about? :what:


Some twat posted a video and their was coke in the room. You have no idea if he even did it. Does the video make him look poorly? Sure. But he didn’t do anything wrong. It’s people like you who make up bullshyt like “he was on tape doing crack” that run the narrative that he’s problem when he’s been the complete opposite of that.

Dude is a once in a lifetime talent. If you can’t see that by watching him then just look at his numbers. Unless it was a Herschel Walker type deal, trading him would be the dumbest thing this franchise has ever done. That and signing Dave Brown :russ:

:patrice:

It's been a greenlight ever since he had that boat trip before the playoff game and didn't produce...

Odell is the the 5 year old who does bad shyt that everybody laughs at and ignores...Then he is 15 and the parents wonder how he got with the wrong crowd and locked up..

the on field temper tantrums are just the beginning

You gotta nip shyt in the bud ASAP with cats like him

The man is a monster talent...But the signs are there that if he dosent shape up, his talent is gonna be an afterthought because he will be fighting a case or suspension...

This isnt the Lawrence Taylor days..

Cameras are everywhere

Lol what bad shyt has he done? Got into a competitive fight with a player on the field? Threw a tantrum on the sidelines? Took a trip to Miami before a big playoff game?

These aren’t problems you trade your star player for. Not to mention easily the best WR the Giants EVER had.

I 100% agree he needs to handle things better but he did these things in his early 20’s.

The way Mara & the front office is handling this is absurd. I’m almost ashamed to be a fan of this organization.

We all know why OBJ is getting treated the way he his, he doesn't have the complexion for the protection.

And now he getting caught on camera with coke in the room:heh:....but it dont matter because he didn't touch it:ehh:

If you catch your kid in the room with matches, are you gonna let it ride because he didn't light it:dwillhuh:


And he didnt even care if he was being filmed..So either he was too drunk to care and/or he just didnt give a fukk..:patrice:

This nikka is a walking lick who gonna end up in some bullshyt for his blatant negligence..whether it be a "rape"charge or something else these hoes can come up on..

And if you dont think these hoes can get him to do a line or 2, your sadly mistaken:bryan:

The man is a hall of fame talent, but a knucklehead...

We know these owners are racists, which is why Odell need to get his shyt together

I love what the Giants are doing, and it's been confirmed we're switching to a 3-4, this should help Vernon. And I'm glad they're shopping Odell. Gettleman isn't fukking around.

Why do you keep comparing Odell to some freshman in HS? He’s a grown ass man that can do whatever he wants in his spare time.

Yes, coke can be in the same room and you can choose not to do it.

Like I said, the video makes him look bad but it doesn’t show him doing shyt. Not to mention it’s the off-season and these athletes can do whatever the fukk they want.
