Odell Beckham Jr. not surprised Jets wil try to knock ball out of his hands

Some Jets defenders apparently believe that Odell Beckham Jr. is vulnerable to having passes knocked out of his hands as he extends for the football. They saw how the Patriots’ Malcolm Butler was able to whack a potential touchdown away from his grip several weeks ago, and believe that the quirk in Beckham’s technique – extending and trying to keep the ball away from defenders – can be exploited.

Beckham’s take on that?

“I mean, that’s their job, to knock the ball out your hands, so it’s surprising that somebody is just now saying that,” he said.
