The New York Giants have discussed a reunion with former wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., coach John Harbaugh confirmed Monday at the NFL's league meetings.

Harbaugh, who said he still regularly talks and texts with Beckham after coaching him in 2023 with the Baltimore Ravens, said he's one of his "favorite people in the world," adding that the team will "look at every option" when it comes to potentially bringing him back to New York.

Beckham, a 33-year-old free agent who did not play in the NFL last season, is best known for his tenure as a Giant, amassing 5,476 yards and 44 touchdowns over five seasons in New York after he was selected as the 12th overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft.

He last played for the Miami Dolphins in 2024, recording nine catches for 55 yards in nine games. His post-Giants career has also included stops with the Cleveland Browns (2019-21), Los Angeles Rams (2021) and Baltimore.

The three-time Pro Bowl selection has five career 1,000-yard seasons, but none since 2019. He won a Super Bowl with the Rams.

The NFL suspended Beckham for six games last October for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. However, he's eligible for the start of the 2026 season should a team sign him.
