Odell Beckham skips OTAs: Precursor to holdout?

Odell Beckham is "pretty close" to finishing rehab on his surgically repaired ankle, according to coach Pat Shurmur, but it is his contract status that could become the Giants' Achilles heel.

Beckham skipped Week 2 of organized team activities, meaning he wasn't on the practice field for the first time with his teammates after going 6-for-6 -- three in a pre-draft minicamp and three in the first week of OTAs -- in voluntary attendance to start the offseason.

If the star wide receiver skips the final four OTAs in Week 3, it will raise the level of will-he or won't-he around whether Beckham shows up for a mandatory minicamp June 12-14.
