Eli Manning yelled out the signals and took the snap, dropping back and looking downfield for a receiver. No one was open.
The Giants’ quarterback then sidestepped an onrushing defensive lineman and scrambled to his right to buy time. Once Manning moved out of the pocket, Beckham adjusted his route near the back of the end zone, racing toward the right corner. Manning delivered the pass, and Beckham extended his body, snatched the ball out of the air and got two feet in bounds for the touchdown.
It was only a practice drill on Friday, but the connection was meaningful nonetheless.
