#Giants coach John Harbaugh, asked last night if Odell Beckham was in line to make the team, didn’t want to announce ros Via @MikeGarafolo on X

What happened: John Harbaugh said the receiver has done enough to make an NFL roster. Mike Garafolo reported that an official return was about 34 hours away.

Why it matters: The decision would convert a June reunion into a place on the Giants' initial roster for the upcoming season. It would also resolve one of the team's remaining cutdown calls.

By the numbers: The receiver caught three passes for 53 yards in the preseason finale.

What to watch: The Giants must submit their initial 53-man roster by 6 p.m. Sunday.
