Giants’ Beckham Played Season With Muscle Tears in Leg

Published

on

If we needed another reason to marvel at Odell Beckham’s rookie season in 2014, consider the news he dropped on Sunday night after a five-catch performance in the Pro Bowl: He played the whole year with a pair of muscle tears in his leg.

“I was never really fully healthy for the season anyways,” Beckham said. “So, I was just trying to manage and maintain it the best I could all year.”

Beckham said the tears were sustained to his semitendinosus and bicep belly. The initial tear was suffered early in camp and the second happened a few weeks later when he tried to come back, the latter of which prolonged his comeback.

He said he’ll need to shut himself down this offseason in order to enter next season in good shape, a process which begins immediately. He’ll remain in Arizona to work on his recovery.

“It’s still not right, I’m still working on it,” Beckham said. “I’m trying to get it 100 percent for next year.”
