Giants must move on, even if Odell Beckham can’t

I’m going to miss Odell Beckham Jr., but New York isn’t.

If there were any lingering doubts the Giants should have traded their mercurial superstar in a blockbuster move last March, those apprehensions should be eased by what Beckham had to say in GQ this month under the headline: “Inside the mind of Odell Beckham Jr.”

That was always an interesting place to be for a journalist. There was never a lack of material after a conversation with the ultra-talented wide receiver. He was the Giants’ first social media star — who courted the kind of controversy that didn’t always sit well with the Giants, but made for interesting headlines.
