EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Vikings began the week preparing as if Giants receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. could play Sunday night, but the NFL announced Wednesday that the second-year pro’s suspension has been upheld after appeal.
The Vikings (9-5) won’t be tasked with going against the leading receiver of the Giants (6-8) when Minnesota hosts New York on Sunday Night Football. Players, however, said there are still plenty of challenges from the Giants in the passing game.
That starts with Eli Manning, who has solid numbers when targeting all other teammates in the past two years.
