The New York Giants were poised for the 2017 season with arguably the best WR core in the league, featuring Brandon Marshall, Odell Beckham Jr., and Sterling Shepard.
That may soon be just Brandon Marshall and Odell Beckham Jr.
The Giants stand-out sophomore WR was just carted off the field in tears with a non-contact leg injury during Wednesday morning’s practice.
