WR corps ready to step up with Beckham absent

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Odell Beckham Jr.’s bright star has been temporarily eclipsed, but the other Giants receivers are confident they will shine in his absence.

Beckham will miss the Giants’ game tomorrow night in frosty Minnesota as he serves his one-game NFL suspension for his actions in the loss to Carolina last Sunday. The second-year pro has been the team’s most productive player, with 91 catches for 1,396 yards and 13 touchdowns, the latter figure tying a franchise record.

Without him, Eli Manning will look to the other wideouts, including Rueben Randle, Dwayne Harris, Hakeem Nicks, Myles White, and perhaps rookies Geremy Davis and Ben Edwards, who joined the active roster this week.
