Until the sun goes down, Odell Beckham Jr. is going to be loved by the New York Giants faithful. Things didn’t end perfectly between OBJ and the G-Men, but he’s always going to be remembered in the area for his amazing play. It’s why so many people are hoping a miracle goes down and he signs with the team.

Regardless of if that happens or not, Beckham has the Giants supporters smiling on Thursday thanks to his latest social media post.

Beckham took to Twitter to give props to Saquon Barkley following his impressive Week 1 performance, which led to NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors. The words below from Beckham will surely make you smile.

Odell Beckham Jr. knows how special Saquon Barkley can be for the NY Giants

Giants fans couldn’t have been happier seeing Barkley play so well vs. the Titans and now we know Beckham was loving every minute of Sunday’s win over Tennessee as well. Barkley turned back the clock with his performance, recording 194 total yards and a touchdown run. Not only that, his two-point conversion to win the game for the G-Men was epic.

Looking ahead to Week 2, Barkley is ready to try and keep things rocking against the Carolina Panthers. The Giants are favored to come out on top of this one. In order for that to happen and Brian Daboll’s men to improve to 2-0, there’s no question that Barkley will need to have another strong game.

As for Beckham, he’s still recovering from his torn ACL in the Super Bowl win for the Los Angeles Rams. OBJ remains a free agent, but the expectation is that he’ll end up inking with a team sooner than later. The thought of Beckham back in East Rutherford is most definitely intriguing.

People wouldn’t mind seeing him suit up with Barkley once again, that’s for sure. Whether or not that happens is up in the air, but it’s cool to see Beckham is still following the Giants closely and that he’s always going to be rooting for Barkley to be at his best.
