Steve Tisch hopes Odell Beckham Jr. remains with Giants

ORLANDO, Fla. -- New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch said Monday that he hopes star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. remains a Giant for years to come.

But Tisch also made it clear that a contract extension for Beckham is not a front-burner issue for the organization right now.

"Odell's contract will be negotiated at the appropriate time," Tisch said during a break at the NFL's annual owners meeting. "At the moment, conversations between (Giants GM) Dave Gettleman and Odell's representatives are at the earliest, most premature stages."

Beckham is entering his fifth year with the Giants, and as is the case with all first-round picks under the current collective bargaining agreement, the Giants held a team option for his fifth year.
