Twitter and social media as a whole was on fire on Sunday night with the NY Giants taking down the Minnesota Vikings. The haters – yeah, they’ve got nothing to say. Several former NY playmakers loved seeing the upset and wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was most definitely having the time of his life watching some old friends put on a show.

OBJ is still quite close with running back Saquon Barkley. With Barkley finding the end zone twice, you know this brought a smile to Beckham’s face. Now, Beckham is jacked up for the Giants showdown with the Eagles, saying he knows Barkley is ready to try and take down the NFC East rivals this weekend.

Odell Beckham Jr. keeps hinting he wants an NY Giants return

Over the past few months, Beckham hasn’t hesitated in showing the G-Men plenty of love on his Twitter and Instagram accounts. If anything, all it’s doing is having the Big Blue faithful dreaming of the day he dons a Giants jersey once again.

It was potentially on the table for this season, but it didn’t go down. Could something end up going down for next season, though?

So, not only is Beckham basically cheering on the Giants, but he’s also showing support and picking up Darius Slayton? Slayton was down in the dumps late in the action, as he dropped a pass that could have sealed the win for New York.

Slayton had his head down on the bench, but as soon as Xavier McKinney made his game-sealing tackle, Barkley rushed over to give him even more words of encouragement. Now, he’s got Beckham telling him to flush the rough moment and just focus on balling out against the Eagles in the Divsional Round. Amazing.

There’s no denying Beckham is a bit of a controversial figure, and a lot of people weren’t happy with the video that was released of him getting kicked off a flight in November.

With that said, when healthy, he’s still a stud receiver and several teams will be looking to add him to their roster sooner than later. NY could be a great landing spot for him and it’s what a lot of Giants fans want to see. Joe Schoen has quite the decision on his hands.
