Reward not worth the risk of playing Odell Beckham Jr. in preseason

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Giants play the Cleveland Browns in preseason action on Thursday night. That alone should scare the bejeezus out of Giants fans after what happened when the same teams met last summer.

Stuck in their memory may be star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. crumbling to the turf after his left leg was bent inward from a hit by Browns cornerback Briean Boddy-Calhoun. Beckham jogged off the field but later crumbled to the ground in pain once he entered the bowels of FirstEnergy Stadium.
