Giants list Odell Beckham Jr. as third-string WR on initial depth chart

The Giants released their first depth chart of the summer on Wednesday and it provides a view of how Odell Beckham Jr.'s bid to make the team is shaping up.

Beckham is listed on the third string along with three other wideouts. Reports from camp last week had Beckham, who did not play at all in 2025, getting reps with the first team, but it will be hard for a player who doesn’t play on special teams to make the cut from his current spot on the depth chart.

Darius Slayton is listed as a starter along with Malik Nabers with Calvin Austin, Darnell Mooney and Jalin Hyatt on the second rung. Hyatt’s placement is a bit surprising based on how reports from camp about how the receiver reps are doled out. Isaiah Hodgins, Dalen Cambre, and rookie Malachi Fields join Beckham on the third string with JuJu Smith-Schuster and Braxton Berrios on the fourth row. Berrios is also listed as the top punt returner.

Teams stress the unofficial nature of these depth charts, so the way they line up in preseason games may prove to be more telling about how things will play out for the Giants. Their first game is Saturday against the Vikings.
