Odell Beckham created phenomenon by proving beginners don't need two hands

It was pretty easy to find one-handed catches this summer. All you had to do was head out to Giants practice, look for the number 13 and wait.

Odell Beckham Jr.? More often than not, no. While he made a few, the more common occurrence was seeing kids and adults in his jersey tossing a football around in the parking lot or on the side, working on the mono-mitted maneuver.

And this NFL season, there figure to be even more entries into the lexicon. While Beckham's iconic grab against the Cowboys last November was an instant classic, the kind of play that rockets a rookie to stardom, it also may come to be remembered as the play that brought the one-handed snatch to a prominent role in the game.
