Report: Team Hired Private Investigator to Watch Odell Beckham Jr.

An unnamed NFL team interested in acquiring Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. hired a private investigator to track the wideout in the spring, according to ESPN's Seth Wickersham.

In March, a viral video surfaced and showed Beckham in Paris sitting bedside next to an aspiring model, a box of pizza and what appeared to be suspicious white powder. Around the same time, Beckham had expressed he wanted to become the NFL's highest-paid player and the Giants were fielding trade offers for his services.

One interested team hired a private investigator to look further into the Beckham video and behavior.
