A star wide receiver caught off guard by his team’s decision to release him despite limited involvement in games expresses surprise at the move, insisting he had no prior indication it was coming. The player, known for his high-profile status, reflects on his reduced role and targets as factors that may have contributed to the unexpected turn of events. His comments suggest a disconnect between his own perception of his standing and the team’s assessment of his future with the franchise. The situation raises questions about how closely players are kept in the loop regarding their status within the organization.
It certainly should not have been a surprise based on his lack of playing time and targets, but Odell Beckham Jr. claims he didn't see his recent release by the Giants coming.
